Good

Ich finde es sehr hilfreich, in einem Vorstellungsgespräch freundlich und geduldig Fragen zu stellen – besonders, wenn jemand gestresst ist. Manchmal weiß die Person nicht genau, wo sie anfangen soll, und ein wenig Unterstützung kann da sehr viel bewirken. Es ist gut zu zeigen, dass man zuhört – zum Beispiel durch Nicken oder andere ermutigende Gesten – und dann eine passende Folgefrage zu stellen, nachdem die Person gesprochen hat. Das hilft, eine angenehme Atmosphäre zu schaffen und macht es der Person leichter, ihre Gedanken zu ordnen.

Great Work Environment with Room for Improvement

I've had a very positive experience working here so far. The work-life balance is very good, and the overall atmosphere is supportive. My manager and colleagues are fantastic—always helpful, encouraging, and fostering a collaborative work environment. The training opportunities are excellent, allowing for continuous learning and professional growth. The work itself is engaging and provides a good balance of challenge and development. One improvement I’d love to see is the option for more home office days, which would further enhance flexibility. Additionally, having an on-site daycare facility would be a great support for employees with young children. Overall, a great place to work with a strong team spirit and a healthy work culture!

Bewertung meines Bewerbungsgesprächs bei Shimadzu

Am x März hatte ich mein Bewerbungsgespräch bei Shimadzu, das insgesamt sehr positiv verlaufen ist. Meine beiden Ansprechpartner waren äußerst freundlich, haben mich herzlich empfangen und mir direkt etwas zu trinken angeboten. Während des Gesprächs wurde das Unternehmen ausführlich vorgestellt, ebenso wie der genaue Aufgabenbereich der Position. Alle relevanten Aspekte wurden klar und verständlich erläutert, sodass keine offenen Fragen blieben. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich die offene und professionelle Atmosphäre, die das Gespräch geprägt hat. Ich habe das Gefühl gewonnen, dass Qualität und Präzision in diesem Unternehmen eine zentrale Rolle spielen – Werte, mit denen ich mich sehr gut identifizieren kann. Ich wünsche mir sehr, Teil dieses Unternehmens zu werden und meinen Beitrag zum Erfolg von Shimadzu leisten zu dürfen.
