FAQ
How do I apply to Gottwald?
You can apply directly online or by email to bewerbung@gottwald.at for a vacancy — for many positions it takes no more than sixty seconds. You can send your CV, covering letter and references straight away or hand them in later.
What should my application contain?
Ideally a CV, a covering letter and any relevant references. For a first approach, though, the required fields in the form are enough — the rest can follow later.
Can I send in documents later?
Yes. You can start by filling in just the required fields and uploading your CV, and then send further documents by email to bewerbung@gottwald.at – ideally stating the position you applied for.
How large may uploads be?
Up to 15 MB per file. Several files can be uploaded in total. Recommended formats: PDF, DOCX, JPG, PNG.
How long will it take to hear back?
We normally get back to you within a few working days — by email or by phone. When we receive a lot of applications it can take a little longer, but you will always hear from us.
What does the application process look like?
Five steps: application → review of your documents and first response → a phone call → interview → decision. You will find the details in the timeline at the top of this page.
Where does the interview take place?
Usually at one of our sites (Melk or Parndorf) — depending on the position. If it suits better, a first conversation over Teams is also possible.
Is there a taster day?
Yes, for apprentices we are happy to arrange a taster day so you can experience the company first hand. Just ask us. A trial period through the employment service can also be arranged at any time, where possible.
Who can I turn to with questions?
Our HR department handles everything to do with applications — the easiest way to reach us is at bewerbung@gottwald.at or by phone through the switchboard on +43 2752 52000.
