The procedure: 1st interview, 2nd interview, taster day, offer
Because we know that you are waiting for our response, we do our best to respond to your application as soon as possible. Depending on the posted position and the number of applications we receive, it may sometimes take us a couple of days; please accept our apologies in that case.If your application convinces us, we will get in touch with you and schedule an appointment for an interview.
At Metecon, everybody has a say whether they want to work with you – and you should also get to know all of your future colleagues if possible so that you get an idea of who we are. In addition to all of your professional qualification, it is very important to us that we fit together. That doesn’t mean you have to love the same sandwiches we do. We all love different sandwiches. Some may even claim we are a sandwich short of a picnic. But you can decide about that for yourself then.
Please be punctual for our scheduled appointment. Our offices are located directly at the Water Tower, one of the central locations in Mannheim. To find out where exactly, go to Contact.Be prepared that we will take a lot of time to get to know you. Our interviews usually take between 60 and 120 minutes, depending on the responsibilities and number of colleagues you will be talking to.
Working at Metecon: that’s for sure
As an applicant you should enjoy the handling of complex tasks and be able to process them in a structured manner. Our work isn’t cookie-cutter business; hardly ever do we do the same thing twice. Instead, we have to acquire new expert knowledge for each project and put it into practice, we must demonstrate excellent conceptual skills, find individual solutions, make courageous decisions, deliberately take a pioneering role toward our customers, and be confident to take them by the hand. Communication skills, self and project management are the cornerstones for successful projects.
With our customers we maintain trustful, long-term relationships, we are discussion partner, enabler, implementer – or simply: service champion. Sometimes that means that we end up with a result that the customer didn’t really expect or maybe doesn’t even want. But because the client always comes first for us, we are able to bear it. You too? We are committed consultants AND implementers. Just one of these talents – omniscient prince charming OR busy lizzie – is not what we are looking for. As an applicant you should therefore have both communication skills and a healthy self-confidence paired with endless enthusiasm for immersing yourself in new topics and put your knowledge into practice.
We are not a family – after all, you cannot choose your family. But we are good colleagues for each other and therefore take care of each other. We respect the individuality of each colleague, promote our talents, support and trust each other. And often colleagues become real friends.

Your first days with us
If we reach an agreement, your first workday is just around the corner. Before you start, we will stay in touch and you will have to provide some more information and documents.
Your first working day starts at 10am.
Setting a good example
You are focused on a steep career? Then a major employer is probably a better choice for you. We don’t have any hierarchies. Well, we have a boss; but even he prefers to talk about “colleagues” instead of “employees”. We work in roles instead of hierarchies. It makes us more flexible and is due to our principle that we want to enable exchange on a par with each other.But what does it look like in practice? In addition to project members and project managers (which changes from project to project; a manager of one project delivers merely part of the input for another project), we have for instance the role of the coordinator (as a project planner and designer at the interface to the customer) and topic owner: Experts for a certain topic bundle their knowledge and make it accessible for their colleagues. If needed, you may choose a mentor yourself; especially for young colleagues a mentor can be very valuable for your professional and personal development.
We are self-determined in our work, because we are convinced that this is the most appreciative way of collaborating.
Freedom and self-determination combine in responsibility. So we match if you are willing to take on the responsibility to make decisions for yourself and your team.
Permanent employment contracts are standard at Metecon. Of course we offer all kinds of different working time schemes and the possibility to work from home. But temporary employment contracts contradict our principles of equality and mutual appreciation.

We don’t fear a spanner in the works, because it is always a sign of dynamics and change. You are not satisfied? Spit it out! We are not looking for quarrelers and confirmed grumblers, but neither do we want flags in the breeze. Be an active contributor and don’t shy away from conflicts – an agile company needs people like you, and so do our customers; after all they trust us to find the best solution – and it is not always the one that the customer prefers.
Our success as a participant of the TOP JOB employer competition proves that we are on the right track: As a first-time participant we were able to convince the jury in every respect, achieved the overall victory in size class A (up to 100 employees), and are therefore “Employer of the year 2018”. Jury quote: “The jury rewards a management culture that keeps an eye on and constantly nurtures the well-being of the company and the employees alike."
