I applied online. I interviewed at BKW (Bern) in Mar 2025
Interview
Had a positive exchange with both the recruiter and the potential future line manager. The role was explained clearly and the overall atmosphere was very constructive. In the end, it wasn’t a 100% fit for me in terms of focus and salary, but I came away with a very positive impression of both the team and the company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How to handle relations with Group corporate comms.
Visibly very political manager with limited technical knowledge, and still enough arrogance to judge much more quantitative candidates. And this, despite their relatively poor reputation in the market. Very bad experience.
Two round interview.
Second round with case study and chance to meet every member of the team.
Looking for a good balance between technical skills and good fit to the team. Background not necessarily relevant, more the skillset and motivation for the job.
