What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
When I applied I had no logistic experience, however I showed I was hard working, committed and forward thinking which stood me in good stead. As I was applying for a graduate management scheme showing that I had good leadership experience and was well organised was key.
Do you have any interview tips?
DHL likes 'real', 'salt of the earth', 'hard working' people. There is no need to put on airs and graces or be pretentious. The company wants to see that you are willing, able and will get on with people.
Many of the top level guys worked themselves from the bottom up so although they appreciate the value of bright people they won't be interested in your academic studies. Talk about 'real life' or 'business' experience rather than how many A levels you have or the 'first' you are currently on track for.
If I could give one bit of advice it would be ask the interviewer (or anyone you meet in the business) how they got to where they did career wise... Everyone loves to talk about themselves and if your asking them it makes it appear you value what they have to say. Make sure you ask a follow up question to show you have been listening. E.G. you mentioned that you had experience starting up a new warehouse, can you tell me more about that? It sounded really interesting.
