In your job you contribute a significant amount of time, present a lot of passion and want to have the ability to express yourself. These goals are best achieved in an environment in which you feel comfortable. Therefore the culture of a company is a crucial indicator. For this reason, we offer you the opportunity to take our Culture Check and get an insight into our Corporate Culture.
This test consists of 8 questions and will take no longer than 5 minutes. Once an answer is selected, it cannot be changed. Remember to always choose the answer that most fits your behaviour.
Please note: The Cultural Check is not an official part of the application. It is absolutely anonymous and only serves to give you an idea in advance.
