Zusätzliche Informationen über das Unternehmen
At DHL Consulting, we have very diverse teams. Our consultants come from 25 different countries. With our largest office in Germany, many of our colleagues are German, but we are proud that over 1/3 of our colleagues have an international background. This internationality, along with global customers & projects, make a strong command of Business English a prerequisite for working with us. German language skills, on the other hand, are not required.
We make sure to pay special attention to diversity when hiring new colleagues. Whatever their cultural heritage, ethnicity, or gender, what’s really common amongst our consultants is that they all hold university degrees in their field of study.
Of course, we do not only seek people that are smart, but who also enrich our perspective and our team as a whole. We also cater to family needs wherever we can, for example, by offering individual working models for parents.

After handing in your application online, we will review your qualifications. We will reach out to some of you and ask for additional documents. The next step will be an online assessment. If we want to get to know you personally, we will invite you to one of our frequent recruiting days, where you can take part in a series of one-on-one case interviews. If we are impressed by your performance throughout the recruiting day, we will offer you a contract at the end of the day.
Anforderungen an Bewerber
Anforderungen an Bewerber
We look for a unique combination of analytical and
communicative skills. No matter what you’ve studied, we require a first-rate
academic record and a passion for delivering excellent results.
Ideally, you’ve already proven your analytical and problem-solving
skills in internships, extra-curricular activities and – if applicable to you –
your work experience. Given our global scope, international experience is a
must, and it’s equally important to be very confident in your ability to use
English for business. German language skills, however, are not required at any
of our locations.
Over the course of your career with us, you’ll encounter a
wide range of clients and colleagues, and may experience international travel.
Any additional qualifications you hold will also score extra points.

CV and cover letter
Never underestimate the power of first impressions. Make sure your CV (résumé) clearly states who you are – with your work experience, academic background, and any other skill, activity or interest you feel is important to mention.
Pay attention to the length of your CV: often less is more. Think of how many pages you need, considering your seniority and experience. Cover letters may seem old-fashioned, but they represent your opportunity to tell us in your own words why you’re the right person for the job. And, of course, make sure to use spell check before hitting ‘send’. Please provide your documents in English where possible.
Cases
Practice makes perfect. During the interviews, you’ll encounter structured behavioral interviews, possibly a role play, and for sure case studies representing real life project examples. Your individual case journey can cover the full range of our business, including management consulting and supply chain consulting topics. Make sure you’re familiar with case interviews so you can focus on the solution, rather than being caught off guard.
Dress code
There’s only one chance to make a first impression. How you dress is not going to impress anyone, but you should come dressed as if you were going to see a client in a consulting project.
Relax
Before the interview, make sure you have enough rest and sleep. Make sure you arrive on time for the recruiting day. Plan for enough time prior to the interviews to settle down, get familiar with the environment and relax.

Generating impact is an important motivator for me. Seeing our recommendations getting implemented by our clients is very rewarding.
