General FAQs

What characterizes AGRANA as an employer?

Within just a few years, AGRANA has developed from a traditionally Austrian company into an internationally operating group. At AGRANA you will have an international work environment (company language English), exciting, diverse and challenging tasks as well as great development and career opportunities in a global company.

What is AGRANA expecting from applicants, both career starters as well as experienced employees?

For a successful start at AGRANA you should show great personal commitment and motivation. As AGRANA is a typical business-to-business company, it is important that employees have a clear and high market and customer orientation. AGRANA is operating in a highly international field, with customers, suppliers and employees from all over the world. Therefore, the ability to work in an intercultural environment as well as tolerance but also excellent English skills are of great importance. Furthermore, qualities such as the ability to work in a team, flexibility, openness and willingness to learn are important to us.

Are the vacancies posted on the AGRANA website up to date?

Our Recruiting Team is updating vacancies on our website daily. While a job offer is available on our website, applications are very welcome.

Can I send an unsolicited application?

In general, all job openings at AGRANA are posted as transparency is very important for us. Even though your unsolicited application will be considered for any vacancies, we highly recommend you apply for a specific open position to show us your clear professional interest. If you are not sure whether an open job matches your profile or not, we will gladly provide assistance.

Are there any application deadlines for posted vacancies?

We always take time to fill the vacancy with the candidate meeting the job requirements best. Therefore, we do not have fixed application deadlines. The only exceptions are positions for apprentices, trainees or interns.

What are the criteria for the selection process?

Each position requires different personality, level of experience and qualifications. All these factors play a role when decisions concerning a job opening are made. Therefore, there is no standard answer possible. However, we ensure that age, gender, looks or religious beliefs do not play any role in the selection process.

May I apply for more than one open job?

We are open for parallel applications. However, we recommend you focus on one open position you prefer. Applications for extremely diverse positions can make it difficult for us to get a clear picture of your interests and your competencies.

How long does it take to receive feedback to my application?

Immediately after sending your application you will receive an automatic reply from our online recruiting system. It is possible that it takes another 2 to 3 weeks until the respective recruiter and any other relevant department have reviewed your application. As soon as this process is completed, we will contact you and inform you about the status of your application.

Can I apply again after having received a negative feedback to my application?

A negative reply to an application only refers to the specific job application but NOT the person. If you have found another vacancy within our company which fits your profile, we would appreciate it if you send us your complete application again.

Will my expenses to come to the interview be reimbursed?

AGRANA only reimburses you your expenses in case of a written agreement made prior booking the trip. If this is not the case, the applicant bears all the travelling costs.

Where can I get additional information of a specific vacancy?

For more information concerning job vacancies you can contact the responsible recruiter who knows more about the job and can help you with detailed inquiries.

Are my documents/personal data treated confidentially?

The protection of your personal data is of particular concern to us. We therefore process your personal data exclusively in accordance with all legal requirements. You can find more information about the processing of your data in our company as well as the data protection claims and rights to which you are entitled in our data protection declaration.
