Apply at Vetter
Our application process
In our team, we live out open, transparent and above all honest communication. Of course, this also applies to your application process, which we want to make as simple and pleasant as possible for you. And this is how it usually works:
Start your job search
Found an open position? Then simply click on the “Apply now” button. You can register and create an applicant account directly, by the way, even without a letter. If you continue without registration, you will automatically receive your login details after sending your application and can register then.
Complete your candidate profile
Applying online has never been easier. In your candidate profile, you can upload your application documents and store your personal data. Among other things, the cover letter – but this is optional for all positions. If we have received your application documents, we will send you a confirmation of receipt by e-mail. Our recruiting team will then review your application and send you feedback as soon as possible.
Welcome to the interview
We will get back to you as soon as we have checked your documents thoroughly. If your application has impressed us and the relevant department, we would naturally like to get to know you more. We would like invite you to a telephone or video interview or to an interview with us on site. If this personal conversation is successful, the next step will follow.
Trial day, second interview or assessment centre
The next step is to give you and us the opportunity to learn more about each other. That’s why we invite you – depending on your potential future position – for a second interview, a trial day or to our assessment centre.
Done! Your mindset and onboarding
If everything suits you and us, we will send you a contract offer – and welcome you to Vetter! By the way, we also mean this: Thanks to our onboarding, you will find your way around quickly. And we will always be happy to help you later.

How long will it take for me to receive feedback on my application?

Your curriculum vitae describes your career and experiences. Completeness and a clear structure count.
✓ One to two pages maximum.
✓ Chronological structure (current event first) including time periods.
✓ Please use headings for better structuring.
✓ Use bullet points instead of body text.
✓ Upload CV as PDF file.
