Zertifikat für Wikimedia Deutschland - Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. als Arbeitgeber
Erfahrungen und Bewertungen von Mitarbeitern und Bewerbern

I applied for the product manager role at Wikimedia DE. The interview panel was very friendly and reflected the reception highlighted on the profile. Team members were more than happy to respond to questions. It gave an impression of the working environment that I can expect. I felt reassured that this is a role where I will be allowed to grow in and learn as the day goes by. Email responses to answers to questions about the general hiring process were transparent. I will recommend this company to anyone going forward. For improvements, I will say that email responses could be sent in a thread so that applicants can follow the conversation, rather than having to open different emails. These different emails can easily get lost in a crowded mailbox and make it difficult for an applicant to keep track in the event that multiple questions have been asked. Thank you.

Such a very thoughtful, professional, and warm group of people. Clearly very good at their jobs and yet what stood out the most was a deep commitment to the values of Wikimedia DE. So impressed!

I felt very comfortable and valued while speaking with the Wiki team. I gained further insight to company life at Wikimedia, as well as the job position. The process was overall very smooth and efficient.

The interview was full of useful information about the company and the position. The interviewer was friendly and answered all my questions, I felt like I was chatting with a friend.

Simple idea for improvement is: if you are unsure about a candidate, don't drag out the application process for 6 weeks. Practice of keeping candidates warm, although they are not the perfect choice for a particular role, is simply a waste of time and energy for all parties involved.

I had one of my first professional interviews in Germany with Wikimedia. The process of the interview from the beginning of my application was very professional, transparent, and responsive. The team gave me step-by-step information and guidance regarding my scheduled interview. My scheduled interview was re-scheduled due to some unforeseen reasons, but they were flexible and accommodative as per my convenience. I felt humbled and privileged to be invited for an interview at Wikimedia. I am not sure whether they will call me for the second round of interviews, but I would highly recommend that future applicants try if you think you qualify for their respective vacancy positions announced. Thanks for making this interview very comfortable and transparent. Both the interviewers are very honest, skillful, and open-minded.

The interview process is good, panelists are good. Duration and timing for the interview is okay.
