Mathias, the shortage of skilled workers has been an issue for many years. How is ASTRUM IT addressing this?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Mathias_Kirschner_Recruiting_Manager\"

Mathias Kirschner, Recruiting Manager: \u201cRecruiting isn\u2019t a sprint; it\u2019s a dialogue between equals.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n

Mathias:<\/strong>\u201cWe take this seriously, but we won\u2019t let it paralyze us. Our approach is to remain visible, honest, and committed. Especially in a tight job market, how you present yourself as an employer is crucial. We focus on an applicant management process that is transparent, fast, and human. No \u2018hire and fire,\u2019 no endless processes, but rather a clear dialogue on equal terms. This is the only way to achieve sustainable recruiting, which is reflected in our very low turnover rate compared to the industry average.\u201d<\/p>\n

What sets your recruiting process apart from that of other companies?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mathias:<\/strong> \u201cMany applicants tell us that they hear nothing from other companies for weeks or receive no feedback at all. That\u2019s a no-go for us. Whenever possible, we respond promptly, are approachable, and provide honest feedback. Our reviews on kununu reflect this. Our communication and the appreciation shown throughout the process are particularly praised.\u201d<\/p>\n

How important is the issue of cultural fit in this context?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mathias:<\/strong>\u201cExtremely important. Professional qualifications are one thing, but whether someone is truly a good fit for us is often decided on a different level. We\u2019re looking for people who share our values, enjoy working together, and want to grow professionally. For us, that\u2019s more sustainable than any short-term hire.\u201d<\/p>\n

What lessons have you learned over the past few years?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mathias:<\/strong> \u201cA few things have proven particularly effective for us:<\/p>\n

Clear messaging:<\/strong> Who we are and what we stand for must be evident at first glance, whether on the website, in job postings, or during interviews.
\nSpeed matters:<\/strong> Quick feedback and short decision-making processes make a huge difference.
\nPeople-first approach:<\/strong> We don\u2019t view applicants as \u201cresources,\u201d but as individuals with potential.
\nFeedback culture:<\/strong> Even when things don\u2019t work out. We give honest, constructive feedback. That\u2019s appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n

And your personal takeaway?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mathias:<\/strong> \u201cRecruiting isn\u2019t a sprint, but a dialogue. Those who listen, communicate honestly, and demonstrate integrity will find the right people even in times of a skills shortage. We\u2019ve seen this firsthand, and we\u2019re staying the course.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thank you very much for the interview, Mathias!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3522,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"rs_blank_template":"","rs_page_bg_color":"","slide_template_v7":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[119],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interviews-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4455"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4455\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4456,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4455\/revisions\/4456"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3522"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.astrum-it.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
