A complete application is always an advantage and speeds up the application process. In addition to a cover letter and a CV, you should also have job references and diplomas.
Can I apply for several positions at the same time or also on my own initiative?
Naturally! We are happy if we can arouse the interest of our applicants in different areas. An application naming the respective position is sufficient.
We are also happy to accept unsolicited applications stating your professional ideas.
Who can see my applicant data and will it be treated confidentially?
Of course. We do not contact anyone outside of SEHO Systems GmbH without your consent. Even within the company, your application will only be forwarded for the purpose of checking possible employment opportunities. We attach great importance to confidentiality and data protection in our application processes, which is why the data you transmit will be treated as strictly confidential.
By submitting your application, you automatically declare your consent to our data protection declaration and your consent to the data you have transmitted being stored and processed as part of the application. This applies to all transmitted data, including the documents sent with it.
You have the option to revoke your consent to the data protection declaration in writing at any time. You can send the revocation by e-mail to our human resources department () or by post to SEHO Systems GmbH, Frankenstraße 7-11, 97892 Kreuzwertheim. Please note: If you withdraw your application, you will automatically withdraw your application from us. You can read more information in our privacy policy.
The Selection Process
What is the selection process like and how long will it take before I get a response?
After we have received your documents, we will send you a confirmation of receipt by e-mail. We will review your documents and coordinate with the contact persons in the respective departments. In most cases, you will receive feedback on your application within a short time.
How does an interview take place and what is the process like?
If your application is convincing, you will receive an invitation to an interview in which employees of the respective department will take part. If necessary, a colleague from the HR department will also take part in the interview. The interview usually lasts about an hour. Please plan enough time! The purpose of the interview is to learn more about you as a person and your knowledge/skills. We would also like to give you an insight into the world of the SEHO team.
I can't find a personal contact person in the advertisement. Who can I address my application to?
You can address your application to our contact person in recruiting, Ms. Larissa Hepp, or you can address it in general.
How can I inquire about the status of my application?
We will keep you regularly informed about the current status of your application. Please refrain from queries.
Where can I find information on how to get there, travel expenses, etc.?
You will receive information on this as part of the selection process.
Is there a dress code for an interview?
Due to the diversity of our job offers, we do not name a classic dress code. It is therefore best to dress appropriately for the position you have applied for and in a way that makes you feel comfortable.
What can I expect in the interview?
An interview offers us the opportunity to find out whether we are a good match. It is important to us as a company not only to find out more about your know-how and your motivation for this position, but also to get to know you better as a person. On the other hand, you should take the opportunity during the conversation to clarify all questions that are relevant to your decision. We plan enough time for this.
How can I withdraw my application?
If you no longer wish to be considered for a position, please withdraw your application. Just send us an e-mail! You can reapply at any time.
I am currently living abroad. Can I also conduct an interview online?
Yes, initial interviews are also possible by phone or via Microsoft Teams.
Education and Study
When can I apply?
For most apprenticeships, we start advertising about a year before the start of the apprenticeship. You can find all currently vacant training and dual study places in our vacancies.
What are the application deadlines for apprenticeships?
The application deadlines vary depending on the training/degree program. If there is an application deadline, this is stated in the respective job advertisement.
Should I also include internship confirmations or certificates with the application?
Yes, you should prove all relevant activities, especially the internships you have carried out, with a certificate or confirmation.
When does the training start?
Training usually begins in August/September of each year.
How long does my training last?
The duration of training is usually 3 years. It is possible to shorten the training period (e.g. if you have a general university entrance qualification) or to be admitted to the examination early (if you do well and in consultation with the training company). Our dual courses are designed to last 3 years (6 semesters). The commercial apprenticeships at SEHO last 3.5 years.
How will I be looked after during my apprenticeship?
During your assignments in the different departments, you will be looked after by the respective trainers, who will introduce you to their area of responsibility and will always be at your side if you have any questions. The training team or the training supervisors are your contact persons during the entire training period.
What comes after the training?
In general, we are interested in taking on committed trainees and will be happy to examine your possible roles after the end of the training period.
Your Onboarding
How do I get trained at SEHO?
After being welcomed by our HR department, you will be trained on site and virtually in your team. You can count on the support of your team members.
As a new team member, you will be integrated quickly and, with the support of your team, you will take on responsibility bit by bit.
How do I get to know my colleagues?
A special team spirit is essential for us. That’s why we organize annual company parties, take part in sports events together and continuously exchange ideas in our everyday work. Since we are not always all in one place, we also use virtual formats. This way you can get to know many of your colleagues.
Can I reorient myself professionally within SEHO?
At SEHO you have the opportunity to follow your career path or to reorient yourself within the company. Together we will find out what goals and wishes you have and how we can best support you in achieving these goals.
