Questions & Answers

How does the application and recruiting process work at HUGO BOSS?

Have you found a vacant post at HUGO BOSS that interests you? Then please submit your application to the contact person cited in the ad.

If we have indicated that it is possible to apply online, we would ask you to use this channel and refrain from sending us a paper application. Needless to say, online applicants will not be disadvantaged in any way.

Once your application has been received at HUGO BOSS (online or by mail), it will be carefully reviewed by the Human Resources department and the relevant department. Should your qualifications match the job profile, we will ask you to attend a personal interview. This will be followed by at least one further interview or Assessment Center review, depending on the position in question.

How do I fill out the online application using the application wizard?

Additional explanations on each of the following pages describe how to complete the individual sections. The information can be provided in any order. The system will automatically save any information that you enter, enabling you to log off at any time and resume what you are doing later.

Take your time when you fill in the online application form, making sure that you answer all of the questions completely and accurately. Please note that some answers are obligatory: the fields that must be filled out are marked with an asterisk. These fields will not become visible to us until you have formally submitted your application, after which they will be taken into consideration in the selection process.

Can I interrupt my application and then continue at a later date?

Immediately after you have been registered in the HUGO BOSS Talent Pool, we will send you the user data for your account. This will enable you to close the assistant at any time and to complete the form at a later date of your choice. Any information you have entered will be automatically saved. However, we will only have access to this information, and be able to use it during the selection process, once you have actually sent in your application.

Please note that, for security reasons, you will be automatically logged out of the system after 60 minutes of inactivity. Needless to say, any information entered beforehand will be saved.

What happens if I change my candidate profile while an application is pending?

Any changes you make to your candidate profile will take immediate effect and be incorporated into previous or pending applications.

How do I know that you have received my application?

We will send confirmation that we have received your application to the e-mail address provided. This e-mail is automatically generated and will reach you within minutes of submission. This serves as confirmation that your application has been submitted to our application management system.

What additional documents will I need to provide?

Alongside your complete online application form, we will need a photograph, your curriculum vitae (CV) and your certificates and letters of recommendation. You should upload all of these into the system as attachments. Feel free to enhance your profile with other attachments such as sketches, work samples etc. (Please see the section "Frequently asked technical questions" for information on admissible file formats).

How up-to-date are the want ads you publish?

The website only displays those positions that are still vacant. Consequently these ads are always up-to-date.

What is the HUGO BOSS Talent Pool and what benefits does it offer?

The HUGO BOSS Talent Pool is a forum enabling you to submit your own personal profile to HUGO BOSS and keep it updated - your whole life long, if you wish.

This can be done independently of whether HUGO BOSS currently has a job opening that fits your profile. If we do advertise a position requiring your qualifications, we will always have the option of reviewing your profile and contacting you. To this end you will need to post your profile. To do this, select the appropriate option from the "Data Overview and Post Profile" menu.

Should you not want to be contacted by HUGO BOSS for any period of time, you can temporarily block access to your profile. You can then choose to re-post your data at any time.

Who can register with the HUGO BOSS Talent Pool?

As a general rule, anyone who is interested in working with the HUGO BOSS organization can register with the HUGO BOSS Talent Pool. It makes no difference whether you would like to join us as an apprentice, intern, career starter, production worker, experienced professional, or member of management; or if you're seeking long- or short-term employment.

How and when will HUGO BOSS contact me?

We will be contacting you by phone or e-mail as soon as we have a position that matches your qualifications. We would therefore ask you not to call or e-mail us in this context.

I've forgotten my login password. How can I access my data again?

Click " Password via e-mail " on the login screen and enter your user name or the e-mail address you submitted when registering. Within a few minutes you will be sent a new temporary password. You will need to change this password the next time you log on.

When I try to register, I get the message "E-mail address is already reserved; specify a different one".

There are two possible reasons for this message. Either you have already registered with us using this address, or you applied by mail and we recorded your data electronically. To resolve the problem, simply access the login screen, click on "Password via e-mail" and apply for a new password using your e-mail address. There is no need to enter a user name at this point.

Other file formats such as ZIP files cannot be processed. Attachments must not exceed 10 MB in size.
