The Art of Conversation: Competence-Based Interviews

At Bontouch, we believe in the power of personal stories and experiences. Our interview process goes beyond traditional assessments to truly understand who you are and what you bring to the table. Our Competence-Based Interviewing, aligned with the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, Result) approach, delves deep into your past experiences, focusing on how you’ve navigated challenges, resolved problems, and made impactful decisions.

The rationale behind this technique is grounded in scientific evidence, showing that understanding a candidate’s behavior and thought processes provides a deeper insight into their capabilities and potential. It’s not just about assessing your past achievements; it’s about understanding you as a person in a workplace and your potential beyond your CV.

In summary, in our interviews, it’s not just about the technical expertise or the right buzzwords. We want to uncover how your unique journey and perspectives shape you professionally. How have you applied your strengths in real-world situations? What lessons have you learned along the way? This is a chance for us to learn how your individual experiences and skills resonate with our needs at Bontouch.

So, as you prepare to join us, remember that your story matters. This narrative will help us see beyond your resume and understand your true potential. We’re excited to explore how your professional journey aligns with our dynamic environment and how, together, we can continue to drive innovation and excellence.

The Interview Voyage: A Comprehensive Overview

At Bontouch, our interview process is more than just a series of meetings; it’s a well-crafted journey designed to explore your potential and fit within our innovative environment. The reason for having these steps is to ensure a thorough process that allows both parties to get to know the company and the candidate properly. This process is about quality assurance for both parties. We employ various types of stages so that we don’t just evaluate one aspect. Instead, you get to showcase who you are in multiple stages, ensuring that we don’t get fixated on how you perform in a single scenario but rather on a comprehensive view of your skills and capabilities. Here’s a detailed roadmap of the steps you can expect:

Step 1: The Introduction Interview

Your first step into the world of Bontouch is an engaging chat with one of our expert recruiters. This is where you’ll get a taste of the Bontouch culture and learn about our projects, partnerships, and the various paths for growth and development within our company. We’re keen on understanding your professional background and aspirations, as well as sorting out practical details like notice periods.

Expect a warm, conversational atmosphere to set the tone. In some cases, we use Evali, a personality and logic test, to provide a foundation for our discussion, focusing more on who you are as a person and giving every candidate a fair chance, free from bias. This introduction includes both soft skills and competency-based interview questions to gauge your personal fit and individuality.

Step 2: The Competence Area Interview

Next, the voyage becomes more specific to your expertise. You might find yourself solving a coding puzzle if you’re a developer or presenting your creative portfolio if you’re in design. This stage is all about how your unique skills and experiences align with the Bontouch ethos and the specific challenges within your field. It’s important to note that this step varies from role to role. For some roles, we may not include this step, as our processes can differ.

Step 3: The Case Interview

Having shone in the previous stage, you’ll engage in a case interview with potential future colleagues. This interactive session is designed to simulate real-life scenarios and tasks, offering both you and us a glimpse into your potential future role here at Bontouch. It’s an excellent opportunity for mutual assessment and learning the team’s dynamics. This could be a coding assignment, designing some wireframes, testing an app, or any other activity related to the role you’re applying for.

Step 4: Understanding Your Past – Reference Check

We value a thorough understanding of your professional history. Hence, we conduct a comprehensive reference check, speaking with former colleagues, managers, and subordinates to paint a complete picture of your work style and collaborative approach.

Step 5: Offer – Decision Time

In the final stage, you’ll meet with your potential manager and the CA head, where they will present the offer and discuss salary, benefits, and other pertinent details about the contract. At this point, we’ve already decided we want you; it’s not an interview but an offer. You’ll get to know your future manager, discuss the role and expectations, go through our impact model, talk about development opportunities, and learn about our culture and values. It’s an opportunity for you to ask questions.
