Interview
The interview process itself was smooth; however, the company lacked transparency. After reaching the final stage—an on-site interview at their Hamburg office—I was told I would receive a contract offer within two days. Instead, there was complete silence for over a month, followed by a rejection. I would have appreciated a timely and direct response. Additionally, the compensation discussed during the in-person meeting was significantly below market standards in Germany and very much below my expectations (communicated to HR on the very first step): I considered this interview process a complete waste of my time.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Statista in Mar 2021
Interview
Nach 3 Interviewgesprächen und einem mündlichen Angebot, kam letztendlich doch eine Absage, weil ich nachgefragt habe wie es wäre wenn man sich nebenbei weiterbilden wollen würde. Z.B. ein MBA. Das ging absolut nicht, da MA sich dann nicht auf die Arbeit konzentrieren könnten....

False job advertisement alert!
I applied for the Key Account Manager role on Linkedin and was invited to an interview about 5 days later. Halfway through the interview, the interviewer admitted the position is ACTUALLY a "Sales Manager" role. What a complete waste of my time it was, especially since they knew they could not meet my salary expectations either.
The interviewer also asked a lot of personal questions, many of which I think are not legal. The interviewer didn't even have the courtesy of following up in a personal email and instead sent out an automated email. Very unprofessional!
