How we hire

We would like to give you some insights into our recruiting process. The steps vary depending on the position and are not always part of every recruiting process.

Initial Conversation: Getting to know each other

In this step, we aim to get to know you personally and see if there's a good fit between you and Swabian Instruments. Our focus is on culture, personality, and team fit.

We believe that a successful partnership starts with mutual understanding and shared values. This conversation is your chance to learn about our company culture and for us to understand your goals and aspirations. Let's see if we make a great match together!

This can be via phone or video call and usually takes up to 30 minutes.



Challenge

The initial challenge should be straightforward for you. It reflects an aspect of the role and provides valuable insights into what you can expect in the position.

It's a great opportunity to showcase your skills. For example, an FPGA developer might face a Verilog or VHDL coding riddle, while a software engineer might tackle a C++ or C# algorithm challenge. Within a Sales or Marketing role you will answer customer requests or write a LinkedIn post.

Every challenge you can complete at home at your convenience. This task is specifically designed for the application process and reflects the actual role.

In-Depth challenge

You will work on a challenging engineering puzzle at home that reflects the job role. A detailed written problem statement will be provided for you to work on independently.

For an Application Scientist position, the challenge could involve problems encountered in an experimental physics lab. A Sales challenge could involve a Sales role-play whereas a administrative role could involve a taks in priorization. Every In-Depth challenge can be solved from home and at your preferred date and time. The time spam is from 1.5 hours up to 12h for complex coding issues. The challenges give you a better understanding of the role and are supposed to be fun as well.

By the way, you're not doing our job! You're tackling a problem that relates to a real issue but is specifically designed for the hiring process. :)
