      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ABOUT YOU (Hamburg) in Jul 2022

      Interview

      5 rounds - Telephonic interview with HR, Technical round with hiring manager, Task-based interview, Interview with other team manger and a final round. Process seemed a bit lengthy for an intern role. No remote working option available.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at ABOUT YOU in Jan 2021

      Interview

      During the first interview, while being asked how long I would take to relocate to Hamburg, I mentioned it would be from 2 weeks to 1 month since I needed to apply for a visa. I explained that even though I was living and studying in Europe, I wasn't a European citizen and would require a visa (I even offered to take care of the costs if the company wasn't up to it). Nothing was indicated as a problem and I passed to another interview round. I had 2 interviews with managers (including a technical one after I completed a full assignment!!!), and in another talk with the HR, I got an offer (which I accepted). I interrupted other processes I was also applying, started to plan everything to start my internship at About You, just to be informed a couple of days later, after sending all my documents, that they wouldn't hire me because I needed a visa - something I informed since my first contact with the company. About You took not only my hopes but my time in several interviews and one assignment knowing from the beginning my visa situation. It's ridiculous that a company can do that to candidates without any consequence. I'm for sure not even using the shop anymore and saying so to everyone I know. This kind of mistake is not solved with one "I'm sorry,".

      ABOUT YOU response

      Dear applicant, We are very sorry that you feel like our application process was not a great experience. We are constantly improving our processes and are grateful for feedback and learning. We have checked your case in a closer matter and have checked the email communication and could not find any exchange of information regarding the visa status. Unfortunately, we are unable to verify the verbal / phone arrangements or communication. We are careful to check such organizational matters as part of our process. Usually, the VISA process can take up to two months as various appointments and waiting times have to be taken into account. On top of that, the current Corona situation also leads to longer waiting times than usual. For this reason, the VISA process duration would no longer have corresponded with the desired start date for the internship. We regret that there were misunderstandings in the communication and the commitment in this regard. Still, we want to thank you for your feedback. We will make sure that from now on we will optimize our application process also in regards to edge-cases comparable to yours. We apologize for this unusual situation and wish you all the best. Sincerely, Katrin
