I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AUTO1 Group (Berlin) in Nov 2016
Interview
- Applied online
Very cool company, with incredible growth since 2012.
- Phone interview with HR consultant
Asks about you, your CV, qualifications, more information about what you'll be doing, Auto1 business model
- On-site interview with Manager
The scheduled interviewer was out of office on that day so I was interviewed by the team lead, very impromptu but went smoothly. Chats about my CV and the team. Then there was an excel test which was surprising since I was specifically told not to prepare anything technical for the interview, I guess to determine how you work under pressure.
- Further telephone interview
This with the initial interviewer, who claimed that he couldn't attend our scheduled interview because he thought it was meant to be on Skype - this excuse showed that the team lacks positive communication.
- Outcome email
A week later I received an email from a no-reply inbox saying, "After reviewing your application and qualification, we are sorry to say that it was not the right fit...".
In my opinion, this mail should've read, "We have decided to continue with other candidates who are a BETTER FIT..."
Call from HR and then interview with direct supervisor. It was very nice and professional, but also at the same time casual and informative. You will receive feedback shortly.
You need to be precise on your motivation for the position.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AUTO1 Group
Interview
it was very convenient and informative. They were very professional and asked about what i needed to learn and what i needed from the internship as well as explaining what the company does.
First interview is 30 Minute talk which is pretty generic, then they send you a test after which they invite you for a one on one talk over Skype. the HR Person is very chill but the test is on classification Analysis which is hard.
Dear applicant,
Thanks for rating your application process.
We are happy to hear that you had a positive experience in your interview.
Best wishes,
Your HR Team
