FAQ

I am interested in several jobs. Can I apply for multiple positions at the same time?

Yes - simply fill out your profile in our online application system. Once your online profile is complete, you can apply for multiple positions.

The job offer is written in English - should I write my application in English as well?

Yes, please. As Henkel is an international company you will be working with colleagues from all over the world and English is our official company language. Generally, the 'rule' is: please write the application in the same language as the job ad.

Do I get feedback during the application process about the state of my application?

Each position that we have open with Henkel is unique, and finding the right candidate is important for both the hired candidate as well as for Henkel. We want to make sure that both the candidate and the company are a good fit for each other. We will provide feedback to the candidates throughout the entire process.

Can employees move between business areas and/or to a different country?
