Overall process was pleasant. The hiring manager and all other interview panelists were friendly and seem like a great bunch of people, The recruitment specialist can be more organized and human as the coordination process seem fragmented and copy pasted.
Got a link to a platform where you were asked to answer a series of questions. The answers had to be recorded, every answer was supposed to be answered in less than 3 minutes. Beforehand, the advice was given to prepare using the STAR framework.
Important: once started, you can only interrupt the process once, since they don't want you to have unlimited preparation time for the answers. If it gets interrupted (e.g. due to network connectivity or by closing the tab) a second time, the process is stopped and your interview is basically aborted.

I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM (Munich, Bavaria) in Apr 2026
Interview
Zuerst tauschen wir uns über die gegenseitigen Erwartungen aus. Danach besprechen wir konkrete Situationen aus meiner bisherigen Arbeit im Banking-Sektor, zum Beispiel wie ich Herausforderungen gelöst habe. Mir ist ein ehrlicher Austausch wichtig, damit beide Seiten sehen, ob die Zusammenarbeit passt.
Got sent an invite to interview a couple days after I applied online. They move through the process quite quickly and they'll send you emails for additional forms to fill out if you move through the process.
