Recruiting at the Nexus Group: What you can expect from our process

Our recruiting process is transparent and consists of five steps: application, initial interview, in-depth interview, trial day, and final decision. This way, you’ll always know exactly where you stand with us.
Summary:

Our application process consists of five transparent steps—from your initial application to our final decision—so you’ll always know exactly where you stand.

The application process can be intimidating, especially when you don't know what to expect. We believe that transparency shouldn't start with the job offer, but from the very first contact. That’s why we want to show you what our recruitment process looks like, step by step.

Step 1: Your application

Everything starts with your application. We are interested in your CV, a brief cover letter (Why the Nexus Group? Why now?), and any relevant work samples or references you may have.
You don't need to submit a perfect application. What matters to us is authenticity: show us who you are, what drives you, and why you think you’re a great fit for us.

Step 2: Your first conversation with us

If your application catches our interest, we will invite you to an initial video interview with our HR manager (30 to 45 minutes). In this conversation, we want to get to know you, give you an initial insight into our culture and way of working, and learn more about your experience and motivation. At the same time, you will have the opportunity to get to know us and ask any questions that are important to you.

Step 3: The in-depth interview

In the second interview, we go deeper: in addition to the hiring manager, another relevant team member will also join. Together, we will discuss your professional experience, look at concrete situations from your daily work life, and dive into our four core values.
How have you taken on responsibility in the past? How do you react when a colleague needs support? How do you handle feedback?
This isn't an interrogation, but an open exchange on equal terms. We want to understand how you think, work, and make decisions—and at the same time, you should get to know your future manager, your potential team, and our way of working better. Depending on the position, this step may also include a short task or a practical test.

Step 4: Your trial day – Experience us live

On your trial day, you get an authentic look at your future daily work life. You will get to know your team, our branch, our way of working, and key programs.
A structured day with a team lunch and a small assessment gives you the opportunity to get to know us better and get a real feel for how we work and interact with each other.
This isn't about a test—it's about finding out if we are a good personal fit as well.

Step 5: Decision and feedback

After the trial day, we take time to make a joint decision. It is important to us that you also have time to reflect on your impressions—which is why we intentionally give you a night or two to think it over.
If we are both convinced that it’s a good match, the next step is to check your references. They are an important part of the process for us, as we place great value on trust and mutual reliability.
Once this step is successfully completed, we look forward to welcoming you to our team and planning the next steps for your start and onboarding together.

Our promise

There is no such thing as a perfect company. What matters to us is being honest, communicating openly, and continuously improving together.
What we can promise you: a respectful application process, clear communication, and decisions based on our values rather than just a first impression.
Even after you accept our offer, we will provide structured support as you settle in. With a clearly defined onboarding program and a personal mentor to guide you, we ensure you feel right at home from the start and have everything you need for a successful beginning.
We rely on modern and efficient processes: our documents are organized digitally to avoid unnecessary paperwork and provide you with a simple, contemporary onboarding experience.
