marketing for Storck?
Yay - On my ridiculous resume to Storck has reported someone!
Hammer!
Storck!
Dickmann's
Lach rubber
Toffifee
And the rest of Créateurs de caries ...
Wow! That would be cool
... I thought then, as my 2 months after sending the application finally was offered a job interview.
In the period leading up to the conversation I was then min. 1000 times on the site and have found here that almost none of the brands has its own website, which is really unusual for a consumer-brand ... But at least Dickmann's the online-Dick Mann's Village has ... Supi.
The obligatiorischen but (for me) passionate journey through the different retailers, to see who, how, where and at what price ticked Storck products are my thoughts on the various brands gespungen durch'n head.
Some definitely have potential for further development in advertising!
Storck has, I believe, in Last time on packaging and product development overthrown, but the brands themselves are somehow ... retarded. If you interested in this subject area - press the TWO - Or read the entry "Brääänd chg Prodakt"
Back to the application process.
from over 500 applicants I have made it into the top 10%. Geil. Recall level also. I flew to Berlin
comfortable. Storck indeed paid the cost (after I had asked if I could easily get cheap).
sat on the plane I in the first Row left - 2 seats and a corridor of Thomas Herrmann away. Cool. Thomas Herrmann! That's great. And his dark green snakeskin bag was also funny! Stewart and the gay, too! "Would you like to try a Currywurst" "Instead, maybe a pretzel stick" - Next row - "If you try a Currywurst" "Instead, maybe a liquor shelf?" & Ndash? ; Next row - "Instead," If you try a sausage? " maybe a liquor shelf? "The job is
hammer.
What do I want with brands and sales, if I can offer Comedians Würstle curry and they'll get around in the world?
man. I wish I had done a training loss to the steward ...
Well. Still further to Storck.
The building is not special. Neither in nor out. At the entrance is somehow "Storck" and "Merci" at the door, although it belongs to Storck Merci ... but that is probably somewhere have a reason ...
is in the leeeeeren hall under a glass display case - very proud of - a lone golden Sugarloaf 2,001th Irgendsoeine award for products. At this point, congratulations on this hat, Storck! Great!
was then a young woman with a Storck Tütle passed before my eyes by a man and I was greeted by the nice gentleman and taken away.
We went into a room with a table full of sweets Storck and 2 ladies. Intern HRlerin. The Lord was responsible for marketing / sales.
Very well. Then I sit on hold for 3 people. Stress can not tell me anyway. I am confident.
This is the most important I believe in an interview: confidence. have desire to talk. Know that you want the job. Knowing that it would certainly make great fun to work for the company. And "Hooray think - I'm going to like that and questioned by durchanalysiert by 3 people and monitored until they released me again. How geeeiiill! "
Jaja. According to standard
have presented the first 3, then it was my turn. Blah, what I did, blah blah, where I was, blah blah, I'm like come on Storck, blah ....
The argument "Storck has strong brands, "was not a good argument. By that I differentiate myself from all the other namely zero, I have to say after that was taken up again by the Lord ... I also feel that the products themselves in interviews in general are not soo important. The do not really hear that one of them is excited.
one hand, of course - the job is indeed on other things, like skills. But is now more potential in a person who is highly qualified, but the products are all one, or a person who is technically a bit of catching up , but the products is sooo cool that they would do anything for their development and success? Along the lines of "The Dick Mann's are my babies - I'll protect you and make something great!"
is perhaps worth considering ...?
After rattling off the life-course he has me a bit of technical stuff to the tasks in the sales and then was questioned about a little understanding of the brand. Why
promo for Werther's Original important than for toilet paper?
What% of turnover comes from Sondererregalen to a im Weg stehen und beim Einkaufswagenschieben stören und wie viel von den stinknormalen Regalen?
Warum sollte ein Einzelhändler anstatt dem Shampoo mit hohen Margen lieber Toffifee mit niedrigeren Margen in ein Sonderregal stecken?
Was, wenn der Einzelhändler Montag morgens einfach aus dummen Gegebenheiten nicht die Mittel dazu hat, um noch schnell die neue Storck-Ware einzuräumen und man das beim Markt-Check bemerkt?
Ganz nette Fragen eigentlich, weil die Antworten gar nicht so schwer sind – aber wenn man, sich bei der Vorbereitung auf das Vorstellungsgespräch dann eher auf Verhandlungsargumentation und weniger auf die Situationen vor Ort eingestellt hat, dann is a not all one right away. Grrr.
Well. After 1 h then the happy ending. "Thank you come here. You get on Monday said decision. ". Storck Tütle handover. "Yummy. Bye..
Then you will feel fresh and free, hoping for a good result.
moments pass in review ... "What I have to answer only a scrap," "not intended Dasunddas found the badly of me." "Have I acted nice?" Blah blah in the head holder.
On Monday I was not available and a mail I get "Sorry you were not reachable I try it again tomorrow." Oh great!
This is actually not! to torture! If the review can not simply "good news, I go to you tomorrow" or "I could not reach you, so I write on this path that you were unfortunately too shit for us" .
But not a neutral, "I'll try again tomorrow."
Oh man. The times are indeed
can not really put themselves in the skin of an eager job seekers want to hear the plain text.
The next morning, the call: "Yes, unfortunately, the candidates are all very strong and we have opted for other blabla ...."
Super. This would fit well in an email. What else is in it since usually neither. And because I
to my questions, "Could you have a tip on what I could do better the next job interview?" Wishy-washy even-the-depends-from-the- needs-of-their-employers-from-them-I-got-nothing-because-say-concrete blabla I was also not smarter. But the man was actually a dear. I found him already at the interview in Berlin super. Not too nice but no scratch brush. Exactly right. And sensitivity he has shown the wishy-washy answer yes too. I know not whether crass-specific responses to a separate personality to go directly to the necessarily be better. Do not think. Therefore was his "single course remain" quite ok.
After speaking briefly to flow let a few tears and disappointment, think "'Juhu'. I may continue throughout . Apply I am doing so much. Monster and Stepstone - I'm back! ". And 42 other candidates as well. Concerns have been invited to only 8 in the Re-Recall of which then can be set to about 4. So not even 1% of all applicants.
Tough. Tough. Tough.
