Our tip
Before applying, take some time to find out more about RWE, the relevant business area and the topics you could be working on.
Apply directly through the relevant job description.
Your online application gives us a first impression of you, your experience and your motivation. The job description will tell you which documents are required for the role.
If you’ve prepared all your documents the actual online application only takes about 5 minutes!
We’ll review your application and get back to you.
Once we receive your application, we’ll take the time to review it carefully. We want to understand more about the experience and qualifications you bring and how they relate to the role. We’ll then get back to you and let you know what happens next.
Show us who you are and what motivates you.
There are different ways for us to get to know each other – for example, in person or via video call – depending on the role you’ve applied for. Whatever the format, we want to learn more about you, your experience and your journey so far. At the same time, you’ll get a better insight into the role, the team and what it’s like to work at RWE.
If we both feel it’s a good match and everything fits, we’ll make you an offer.
You’ll receive all the key information and terms for your new role at RWE. We’ll then talk you through the next steps – and look forward to welcoming you to #TeamRWE.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to significantly improve our products, services and processes, supporting both our employees and RWE’s commitment to sustainability.
As a forward-thinking employer, we believe these tools should be embraced rather than restricted – as long as they are used ethically. An application is an opportunity for both of us to find out whether the role is a good match. So while we encourage you to make use of GenAI, we also want to make sure we have enough opportunity to get to know the real you.
That’s why we recommend using AI thoughtfully to strengthen your application and help you prepare for the different stages of the recruitment process – but not to write your application or answer questions for you.
Generic applications and copied answers are easy to spot and don’t show us your unique skills or how you could fit into #TeamRWE. We look forward to receiving your application and getting to know you better throughout our recruitment process.
Have your documents ready, complete all required fields and check your details before submitting your application. If you have all the required documents in the right format, applying should take no more than five minutes. Once you’ve submitted your application, you will receive an acknowledgement email.
We don’t accept unsolicited applications. Please always apply directly through the relevant job description.
Want to apply for more than one role? Make sure you tailor each application to the specific position. Show us what interests you about the role and why your experience is relevant, rather than submitting the same application more than once.
It’s not about memorising the perfect answers. Show us who you are and what motivates you.
Take some time before your interview to get to know RWE and the area you’ve applied to a little better. Find out what defines RWE as a company, the business areas we operate in and what the relevant part of the business does. This will help you better understand the role and the wider context you could be working in.
Read the job description again carefully and familiarise yourself with the responsibilities and requirements.
Think of specific situations from school, university, vocational training, your career or other projects that demonstrate how you work and the strengths you bring. These might include challenges you’ve overcome, tasks where you’ve taken responsibility or situations where you’ve worked successfully as part of a team.
Don’t just think about what you did. Consider how you approached the situation and what you learnt from it. Specific examples help us get to know you and understand your experience better.
Your own questions show that you’re interested – and a good conversation works both ways.
Before your interview, think about what you’d like to ask and what you want to find out. You could use the following questions as inspiration:
