We will start off with an initial screening over the phone. One of our colleagues from talent acquisition will ask you some questions about your past work experience and motivation.

If all is positive, we then proceed with the scheduling of a TMA assessment. This is a talent and motivational analysis. We will send over an assessment consisting of 312 questions. Our colleagues from HR will then run you through your results in a personal interview. 

The last round consists of an informal interview with the partner of your dedicated office. Afterwards we will offer you the position.
