How can I apply and what can I do if there is currently no suitable position?
Check our career portal below for a suitable job offer. You can filter by location, most sought-after skills, job family, experience level, mobile working versus on-site working, full-time/part-time, contract type or by using the keyword search. Alternatively, you can be matched with all open and relevant jobs by uploading your CV to the drag-and-drop box. This way you will receive personalized search results based on your skills, interests, and work experience. Once you have uploaded a CV, you can also join our Talent Community by creating a profile in our career portal and signing up for personalized job alerts. These will keep you up to date with new job opportunities. When you find a job you like, click "Apply Now" to begin the application process.

Why do we inquire about a severe disability within the application process?
It is part of our corporate culture to offer people with disabilities attractive and future-oriented perspectives within the company. With respect to our inclusion agreement, applications from people with disabilities are therefore explicitly welcomed. The required specification of an existing severe disability (from a degree of disability of 50 or an equal status) is voluntary. This data will be treated strictly confidential. If you have a severe disability and would like this to be taken into consideration in the application process, please select "Yes, I have a legally recognized disability". If you do not want your disability to be considered in the application process, you have the option to select "Prefer not to say". You can also leave the field blank if neither option applies to you.

I already have an account in the old career portal. Can I reactivate it?
No, unfortunately not. You will have to register again, as your information cannot be transferred to the new career portal. Unfortunately, your old applications will also not be automatically transferred to our new career portal. However, you will receive a link by e-mail that you can use to manage your previous applications in our old portal. You will also be directed from the old portal to the new career portal and encouraged to apply for new jobs and stay up to date. We thank you for your understanding during the transition period, during which you may experience a few bugs while using the portal.

Can I apply for different jobs at the same time?
Yes, of course. However, you should tailor each application to the job you have chosen, especially if different skills and requirements are required. You will also have the opportunity to answer role-specific questions on each application, if applicable.

I have applied but have not heard back yet. What should I do?
You can check the status of your application at any time. It may take a while for us to make a decision on your application. Simply click on "My activity" and check the status on the "My applications" tab. Here you will also find an overview of all the jobs you have applied for. Will I receive feedback if my application was not successful? For each job you have applied for, you will receive separate feedback by e-mail if your application was not successful. Unfortunately, due to the large number of applications we receive every day, we are not always able to provide individual feedback.

How can I withdraw my application?
You can withdraw your application at any time. Simply click on "My Activity" and withdraw your application under the "My Applications" tab. Please note that once you have withdrawn your application, you will not be able to reapply for the same position.

What should I do if I have difficulty applying for a job?
Click on “Contact Us” at the bottom of the career portal, then follow the instructions in your respective region and let us know your situation.

Will my data be stored when I submit an application?
Your data will be stored in the form of an application profile. However, you have the option to decide how the data is stored. For example, you can choose whether you want to be considered for jobs worldwide or only for the job you are applying for. To change these settings, click on your name in the top right-hand corner and then on "Settings".

Here you can choose between two data protection options. Option 1: " Make my data accessible to all relevant Siemens group companies worldwide to consider me for open positions that fit my profile." Option 2: "Make my data only accessible to Siemens AG and the Siemens group company offering the relevant job position to consider me only for the job I apply for."

Does Siemens Healthineers offer flexible working hours?
Flexible working plays an important role at Siemens Healthineers; we call it the "Healthineers Way of Working". In our job advertisements, for example, you will find a reference to the fact that you can choose the best place for your work with us and that you can work mobile (within Germany) up to an average of 60% of the respective working hours. Of course, this must also be possible within the scope of the respective job and agreed with your manager. You also have the option of filtering our career portal for jobs that allow mobile working.

Does Siemens Healthineers offer part-time positions?
Yes, but it depends on the job whether part-time work is possible. You can find these positions by filtering our career portal by "Either" or "Part-time" as well as other desired criteria.

What documents do I need to apply?
Since we want to keep the application process as quick and uncomplicated as possible, we only need your current CV for our first meeting. We will request further documents from you if they are needed.
