2 weeks for feedback
The HR Recruiting Partner takes 2 weeks and tells Hilti that it is usual for Hilti to have such a long recruitment process. 1 phone interview, 1 live interview, 2 live interview, 1 trial day and then you get the decision. Even before that, one notices that the company only praises itself. They think they're the best.

Dear applicant Thanks for your honest feedback. We make every effort to provide our applicants with feedback within a few days and to point out in case of resource bottlenecks (e.g. holiday period, above-average number of applicants) that the application process will take a little longer. And yes, you are right, at Hilti we carry out an extensive application process with several steps. In this way, we want to ensure that both the applicant and we make this important and long-term decision on the basis of various contacts, impressions and information. Best regards Barbara Werfeli, Head of Talent Acquisition

arrogant, arrogant, lame and inefficient
The application was characterized by "We are the best in Switzerland, both in the construction industry and as an employer" "and what are you? Arrogant and arrogant mood. Infinite self-praise. Before beginning of sentence, uh, uh, uh, uh, without end. Not prepared, rude and nonsensical questions. Lame turtle, 26 days for a mere contact. The company and employees are dubious and not recommendable.

Dear applicant It's not nice to read that our application process disappointed you. It is never our intention to give applicants the impression that we consider ourselves to be something better. In our interviews, we use structured questions and a personality questionnaire to find out whether the applicant fits in with us as a company and whether we fit in with him or her. Only in this way can we ensure that an employee feels comfortable in our company and in his/her role and can develop optimally. I am at your disposal to discuss your impressions. You are welcome to contact me at barbara.werfeli@hilti.com . Friendly greetings Barbara Werfeli, Head of Talent Acquisition

Write many jobs out and always send cancellations
This works well in the company
Always cancel systematically with standard texts and job descriptions remain open and are always renewed or republished. Application process is tedious and extremely long - no intermediate result - no personal contact, anonymous HRs, no contact possibilities (email, phone...)
This could be improved
Post a lot of posts, but if you apply, you get rejections. No beginning, no end, intransparent recruiting process. Replace HR department with professionals

Unfriendly and impersonal
This works well in the company
The location is reasonably easy to reach by public transport.
This could be improved
You will not be contacted although a callback has been agreed with the HR manager. Also the mentioned deadlines are not kept and at the end an automated rejection e-mail is sent a few weeks later.

Sales consultant field service
Very pleasant atmosphere and competent handling throughout the entire recruitment process. + Honesty + Openness + Competent + Recommended Despite the rejection, I found the experience very positive. The somewhat longer waiting times are certainly due to the high number of applicants and the size of the company.

Great Place to Work - not really meant seriously, is it?
This works well in the company
The salary was always paid on time and there is a company car in addition.
This could be improved
Far too high fluctuation, currently >70 vacancies with 450 employees. Rough tone, intrigues and very high performance pressure, but Hilti still likes to position itself as a Great Place to Work(!) Outdated infrastructure in Adliswil (roof leaks, high-bay warehouse from the 70s) is in urgent need of renovation and very embarrassing for a construction supplier of the world. In this sense: "Where your best belongs", but everyone must judge for themselves whether this is really the case. There are enough vacancies ...

Pleasant application process & excellent working environment
This works well in the company
To the application process: Remarkably professional application process with a total of 3 interviews in which 100% applicant oriented is found out whether it harmonizes between applicant and company. Friendly conversations with personnel department and sales. Expertise is of secondary importance. After the application process, the applicant is sent on a trial day. This is the final chance to find out whether the job suits you or not. Immediately after the ride, I received my telephone confirmation of my new job as a salesman. To the working environment: In my opinion, an excellent induction concept is one that is transparently communicated and lived from day one. Super team, work climate & work equipment. A consistently structured company and processes with noticeable employee orientation. Work equipment and system support make your everyday work easier, so that you have a good work-life balance. High potential for long-term employers. Grateful & Glad to be in the boat.
This could be improved
There is potential for improvement in the number of rounds of introductions up to the final acceptance. Possibly something could be combined or omitted.

Never ever
This works well in the company
The company has a nice website and presents itself well to the outside world.
This could be improved
It is premature and grossly rude to be interrupted during the performance of the first five minutes. This is where you should listen carefully to how the applicant sells himself and what words he chooses. Feedback for HR: - Please do not be late for team application interviews - Please inform yourself in advance for which position the applicant has applied - Please find out beforehand what the career path of the respective applicant is - Please be cordial and at eye level - just as Hilti lives on the website

High professionalism, trustworthiness, social competence
This works well in the company
As a former employee of Hilti AG, Schaan, I was able to experience 9 years of professional experience, professionalism and social competence in this company. The company culture was exemplary in every respect!
This could be improved
no suggestions for improvement, because I am unfortunately no longer working for this company
