Skype interview set-up:
- They give information about the market and department first
- First Pitch yourself: go over CV and talk about your interests and why Porsche - followed by Q&A
- Porsche general car types
- Zoom-in on some of the types, for me this was the Cayenne: What do you know about this car-model? E.g. SUV, year of introduction on the market, engine/model types (S, Turbo, Hybrid...), I mentioned some competitors too (e.g. Audi Q7 and BMW X5 for the Cayenne, but recently introduction of the Cayenne Coupé to compete against Audi Q8 and BMW X6)
- Market related topics
- Challenges faced: on a certain market (e.g. What main challenges would we face when entering Singapore with the new Taycan? What needs to be in place to do so?), within Porsche (2 main challenges: communication (different times all over the world, which needs flexibility in order to communicate with other countries) and transport of vehicles)
- We talked about the Taycan
- Sales: biggest markets, sales of car types: as we were talking about the Macan, they asked me the sales number of Macan in 2018, which was around 86.000 units.
- Time for Q&A from both sides and some practical information concerning the application process
