Tips for your application
An application process can be quite nerve-wracking: First impressions count and you want to show your best side! But we also know that blunders and small mistakes are all too human.
Our KEBA recruiters - the very people who check your CV and sit opposite you at a job interview - have a lot of experience and share with you here what is really important to them when applying for a job.
Recruiter from Austria
"Show us your uniqueness: Set yourself apart from other applicants by highlighting your personal skills and experience. Authenticity and honesty are important to us - you can do without general phrases and statements!"
Bianca Altendorfer
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"Don’t send me a standard application. Instead, send documents that truly show who you are and why you want to work at KEBA. Make sure your application is meaningful and substantive. Provide clear examples and concrete experiences rather than generic phrases. The better I can understand what sets you apart, the more memorable your application will be."
Lena Baumgartner
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"Present your personality: be yourself and convince us! A natural and authentic appearance is what counts for us when making a first impression. Your application is like a business card, a recent photo is essential. To prepare for our interview, think about your areas of development and what you expect from us. Show us your enthusiasm and don't be afraid to express your opinion."
Daniela Drasl
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"You can score points by proving that you have looked into KEBA as a company and employer: Give us specific reasons why you would like to do an apprenticeship with us. This shows interest and motivation and, for me, is the basis for a good working relationship."
Tamara Haberleitner
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"We don’t expect perfection, but honesty and commitment. If you’re motivated and take responsibility, it will be noticed positively – even during the job interview. And most importantly: stay true to yourself – that always comes across as the most convincing."
Christian Nikolaus
Recruiter KEBA Austria
“Be authentic – show us who you really are in the interview. Professional expertise is, of course, important, but in the end, it’s your personality and your genuine interest in the position that truly make the difference. We want to understand how you work, what motivates you, and how you would fit into the team. So don’t try to play a perfect role – stay honest and let us see what makes you human.”
Dijana Malešević
Recruiter KEBA Austria
“Show us your true personality in your application – that’s exactly what makes the difference for us. Tell us what genuinely excites you, what drives you, and why you can see a future at KEBA. Take the time to prepare your documents carefully – it will help you leave a coherent and positive overall impression. And don’t worry: feeling nervous during the interview is completely normal. What matters most is that you stay authentic so we can get to know you as a person.”
Christopher Mayr
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"Use the time to get to know each other and highlight your individuality. Show us what makes you unique, what you're passionate about and where your strengths lie. It's important to me that you're authentic and honest - don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. By asking specific questions, both sides can find out whether we are a good match."
Eva Oberhuber
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"Informative application documents are your business card for a good first impression. If you have an interview, be honest and authentic in your answers. Tell us what is important to you and ask questions so that we can find out together whether you are a good fit for us and whether we as a company are a good fit for you. Ultimately, it should be a 'match' for both sides."
Sandra Pilgerstorfer
Recruiter KEBA Austria
"What scores points with us? Honest enthusiasm for the position and our company. It is important to us that you feel a strong connection to our products, our corporate culture and our values. So please tell us what motivates you to work for us and what drives you to become part of the KEBA team."
Ulrike Schaubmaier

Christiane Stampfer
Recruiter KEBA Austria
