Frequently Asked Questions

Any advice for making a great application?

When writing your application letter, focus on highlighting your suitability for the position. Unlike the resume, which emphasizes "hard skills," the application letter allows you to showcase your motivation, teamwork, communication, values, and other interpersonal skills. Tailor your application letter specifically for the job and company, rather than sending a generic one. Aim to keep it around one page or three to four paragraphs.

What should I include in my resume?

Your resume should include your contact information, work experience, education, skills, and any other relevant information that showcases your qualifications for the job. We are particularly interested in seeing experience that aligns with the position requirements. Keep your resume concise and focus on highlighting key competences, such as the technologies you're proficient in. Aim to keep the number of pages low for easy readability. And remember, ensure your contact details are consistent across the application and your CV. No quantum entanglement mix-ups, please!

How should I prepare for an interview?

Prepare by thinking about how you would introduce yourself and discuss your professional experience. Review the position description and consider how you would contribute to the responsibilities outlined. Reflect on past experiences and be ready to share examples of challenges you've overcome, the outcomes you achieved, and what you would do differently now. Additionally, think about your proudest accomplishments and what you expect from the work environment, team, and leadership. Prepare questions to ask about any topics on your mind.

What should I expect during the interview process?

During the interview process, you can expect questions about your work experience, skills, and qualifications for the job. Behavioral or situational questions may also be asked to assess how you handle work-related scenarios. It's important to provide precise and relevant answers to the questions asked. Please note that in some cases, there may be delays in the interview process due to a high volume of applicants for certain positions at IQM.

What kind of relocation support do you provide?

We understand that relocating can be stressful, so we work with partners to ensure a smooth and stress-free relocation process for you. Our partners provide comprehensive information about your new home and assist with all governmental practices. Whether you're moving alone, with a partner, or with your family, we offer support throughout the relocation process. After signing the contract, our partner will contact you to address any questions or concerns you may have.

What should I do if I don't get the job?

If you're not selected for the position you applied for, you can request feedback from the interview and use it to improve your skills in the areas mentioned. You may also consider submitting an open application for future positions that match your background.
