I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Nakisa (Frankfurt am Main) in Mar 2017
Interview
I have received a response to my application within a few days and a first interview with the Recruiter was scheduled. The overall process took 10 weeks and was fairly disappointing and unprofessional. I am an HR person myself and have had over 2000 interviews in my life but never experienced that there was no salary negotiation. Just a very rude situation where I was offered around 15 % less than I earned at my previous company and this was communicated in the very first interview. Wasted time and effort, 5 interviews for nothing. Also the communication and expectation among the interviewers is ambiguous and shows very little alignment. Overall not a good candidate experience.

We are always learning from our experiences and our process improves as we learn.
