Each recruitment will differ depending on the role you are applying for and the business area or function you are interested in. However, what all our recruitments have in common is that we will do our outmost to create an inclusive, positive and seamless experience for you. Read more about our recruitment process below.
Self-reflection and application
When you’re ready to take your next step in your career and dive into the job search mode, we recommend starting with an often-overlooked first step: focus on you.
Before you start applying for a specific job, take some time to ask yourself: What are my short-term and long-term career goals and does this job align with my career goals? Do the responsibilities of this job excite me? What kind of work environment do I thrive in?
Interviews
The purpose of the interview is for us to learn more about your competencies, skills, motivation and values. For you, this is an opportunity to get answers to your questions – would you thrive in this role, team and culture?
You will attend one to three interviews, where you will meet your potential future leader a colleague from our People organisation (HR) or other people relevant to the position.
Work-related assessments
We evaluate you based on your experience, skills and competencies. For some positions, we will also ask you – as part of the evaluation – to complete work-related assessments, such as ability tests.
If you are asked to complete such tests, you will always receive feedback on your test results. All assessments and tests are carried out by skilled and qualified People (HR) professionals.
Evaluation and feedback
We aim to provide feedback on your application as soon as we can, while making sure we give every candidate the time and attention needed to make a fair evaluation.
On completion of interviews and assessments, we perform background checks on the final candidates.
We are looking for people who are passionate about creating value and serving our customers and people who demonstrate ownership and do the right thing even when it takes courage to do so.
Your next opportunity isn't just a job – it's a chance to grow, make an impact and be part of something bigger. Let's build your future together!
The more prepared you are for an interview, the more relaxed you will be and we can have a fruitful dialogue to evaluate if this could be a match. Reflect on what experiences you want to highlight from the past that could add value into this role.
Our culture is our people. To us, banking is about enabling dreams and everyday aspirations. That’s what we do and that’s what you’ll be part of when joining us – whether you’ll be developing smooth online payment solutions, giving advice to the family buying their first house or helping the start-up grow.

The graduate programme has been one of my best decisions career-wise. As a Personal Banking graduate I had the opportunity to develop my leadership skills right after starting the graduate programme.
