Application FAQ

Application FAQ

  • The job advertisements are regularly updated so that all vacancies advertised on our careers page are vacant.

  • If there is nothing to the contrary in the job description, we are usually looking to fill vacancies as soon as possible.

  • Unfortunately, we do not accept speculative applications. The job advertisements on our homepage are always up to date. Set up a “Job Agent”, which will inform you by e-mail about new jobs in the area in which you are interested.

  • No, please apply exclusively online via our application system. Applications submitted elsewhere cannot be considered.

Technical FAQ

  • Are you still online? Is your Internet connection still active? Are pop-ups or JavaScript deactivated in your browser? That you can fix by changing the settings in your browser settings. If this does not work, contact our Technical Support (Hotline: +49-40-4909-3000).

Questions and answers for applicants registered in the Online Recruiting System

  • After registering with our online recruiting system, you will receive an e-mail with the login data for your application account. This enables you to login the system as you please. You may return at a later point in time to continue with your application. The data that you have submitted before the interruption will, of course, remain saved. 

  • You can of course reapply if your last application was unsuccessful. However, make sure to carefully read the requirements for the position and only apply if you are sure that your experience, skills, and competencies match what we are looking for. 

  • If you no longer wish your application to be considered, please withdraw it. You can, of course, reapply at any time. 

  • Online applications are economical for all involved. You do not require an application dossier, you have no postage costs, and you can easily keep your data up to date at any time – and we can process your application much more quickly. What is more, you can register on our Job Agent and define your individual searches. You will then automatically receive an e-mail as soon as a new position is published that matches your search criteria. 

  • You should include a short explanation why you are applying for the position,  your CV, and the most-recent higher education or school certificates, as well as professional references or samples (if available) in digital form. If you wish, you can also attach a recent photograph of yourself. 

  • Any changes you make to your profile come into effect immediately and will also be transferred to previous and ongoing applications. However, make sure that you enter your data as carefully as possible before submitting your application. 

  • In addition to a completed online application form, we would like you to upload copies of all relevant documents (e.g. your CV, school certificates, and professional references). Please upload these documents as an attachment via our system (more information on acceptable file formats can be found in “Technical FAQs”). 

  • Please be sure to include your high school leaving certificate, any relevant intermediate diplomas or degree certificates, an overview of your grades so far, and all professional/intern references. 

  • Login to the Beiersdorf Career Center. In the “Applications” section, you will find the current status of your application.  

  • Your data can be viewed only by Human Resources staff at Beiersdorf. If you have applied for a position, the relevant managers can also view your data. Apart from that, you are the only person who can access your data. For details on how we protect your data please see our data privacy statement

  • If you have released your profile in the Online Career Center, it is you, and only you, who decides how long the profile is available. When you decide that you do not want your data to be accessible, you can lock your profile – and you are then no longer “visible” for us. Alternatively, you can delete your entire registration – which means your data is also deleted. However, if you delete your entire registration, you will have to reenter all relevant data if you wish to apply at Beiersdorf at a later date.
