Our application process

We want to get to know you! That's why we meet our applicants transparently and at eye level and show you here what our application process usually looks like. This way, you know what to expect in the next step before you send in your application and can prepare yourself accordingly.

1. Screening of the documents

You have applied. As soon as we have received your application, you will receive an automatic confirmation by e-mail. We will now carefully check whether your skills and experience match the desired job profile and hope to be able to send you a positive signal soon. We also check whether we have received all the information and documents we need for the pre-selection. If we are missing anything, we will contact you.

Attention: Our confirmation of receipt may not have made it through your spam filter. Please check all your email folders to see if you have already received a response from us.

2. Feedback on the application

It's our turn: In the next step, we will give you feedback by phone or e-mail.

3. First interview

That could be something: This is followed by an initial interview, either in person or digitally, in which we get to know each other. This will give you more information about the position and what makes us an employer. We also look forward to learning more about you, your professional career, your skills and your expectations.

4. Second interview

Let's be more specific: The first interview was positive? Then there is usually another conversation. This gives both sides a more comprehensive picture of each other and clarifies any questions that may have arisen after your first meeting with us.

5. Recruiting support measures

We want to be sure. Our recruiters ensure that both sides have a good basis for making an informed decision during the application process. We do this by carrying out a behavioural profile analysis*, pre-employment screenings** depending on the function, getting to know the team and the workplace, and much more.

6. Welcome to STRABAG SE

We are looking forward to meeting you! Finally, you will receive an offer from us and we will clarify the final details regarding your entry into STRABAG. In Germany, a works council hearing is required before you receive the final contract from us. Done, now you can start your career at STRABAG.

Progress starts with you!

*What is a behavioral profile analysis (VPA)?
The VPA is a supportive tool in the application process. It provides a comprehensive analysis of strengths in the workplace, fears, motivational factors and values. The analysis contains additional information on how people perform under pressure and in stressful situations.

It's great that we are building a better future together! To make sure that your career start goes as smoothly as possible, we will give you a rough overview of what you can expect after signing your employment contract.

Before your first day

We stay in touch. After signing the employment contract and before your first day with us, there is often a little time. We try to use this time to welcome you and give you some information in advance. We know that changing jobs or starting a new career often involves a lot of emotions.

On your first day

Here we go! On your first day, it is important for us that you get to know your team, which is always available to answer your questions. It's just as important that you talk to your manager. We will also introduce you to your planned induction in detail. This way, we want to make sure that you get the knowledge you need for your job with us.

For further orientation, you will find a dedicated induction page on our intranet, the STRANET, with further information and support for your first weeks at STRABAG. In addition, we also offer you interactively designed e-learnings. Learnings with information on the history of the Group, occupational safety, compliance and other topics relevant to you.

After the first few months at STRABAG

How do you feel? After your induction and the first few weeks at STRABAG, we would like to know how you are doing and whether you have already settled in well with your tasks and your team. Wishes? Praise? Criticism? Shortly before the end of the probationary period, you will have an open feedback discussion with your manager and review the first few months.
