If the online application is successful, do I receive an email or a phone call? If a phone call, is it a formality (to fix an interview) or a screening interview?

Hi there,

The first contact will be done by email. Also, at the beginning, almost is done through emails.

All the best,

It will be by email. Furthermore, if you're given the Imbellus or other test, you will again be informed that you passed/failed by email.

Typically you'll receive an email with the outcome of the written application. Then a recruiter will reach out to schedule the interviews.

Hi Anonymous,

For the sake of efficiency, the first contact is done via email to inform you about outcome.

The regular phone call afterwards is a pure formality and just for aligning the interview date(s). However, if there are some reasonable doubts a first pre-interview could still take place - but this is also arranged explicitly.

Hope that helps - if so, please be so kind to give it a thumbs-up with the green upvote button below!

Email is the most popular method. It can depend however if you applied via a referral then sometimes a phone call is also likely.
