Selection and interview

When the application period has expired, we make a selection based on the requirements profile for the position. We select based on who best matches the requirements for education, experience and competences specified in advertisement. If you are one of those who best matches the requirements you will be invited to an interview. 

If you are invited to an interview

During the interview, you usually meet a recruiting manager and generally one or two other employees. At ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡, we work with competence-based recruitment. This means that the questions in the interview are asked based on the characteristics and abilities that are requested in the advertisement. During the interview, you will be asked to describe previous situations and give examples based on them. You can prepare yourself by thinking through situations in your previous work, where you have used the qualities, abilities or experiences required in the ad. 

We care about recruitment processes being objective and therefore we ask questions that are relevant to the current profile's requirements. As part of the overall assessment, you may also be asked to take one or more web-based work psychology tests. If you become one of our final candidates, we will ask for your references at the end of the process.
