Career FAQs

Online application

Yes, you are welcome to apply for several positions. It would be important for us that you state your preference in your application and clearly highlight why your profile fits several positions. Generally, we always check whether an application could also be of interest for other departments.

Yes, we are always happy to receive speculative applications! If you cannot find a suitable advertised position in the CBRE job portal, we will be happy to accept your speculative application. It is important that you tell us in your cover letter which of our departments you are interested in and which locations are suitable for you.

Please upload the following documents as PDF:
1. curriculum vitae
2. letter of motivation*.
3. relevant certificates, e.g. school, school-leaving and university certificates, internship and work certificates
If you have not yet completed your studies, please send us a current overview of your grades.
*You can optionally add a letter of motivation to your application, but this is not a must. An exception is made for speculative applications, applications for an apprenticeship or a dual course of study, in which case we ask for an informative letter of motivation.

Recruiting process

After submitting your application in our online portal, you will receive a confirmation by e-mail. Please also check your spam folder. If you have not received a confirmation of receipt, please contact [email protected].
We look at every application personally and do not use an algorithm. As a rule, you will receive a response from us within 1-2 weeks.

In general, we will reimburse the costs of your travel to the familiarisation interview up to an amount for second-class public transport. Any other costs (e.g. hotel or meal costs) will not be reimbursed. In exceptional cases, the inviting department will be consulted.

Internship and thesis

An application for a follow-up thesis is possible via a speculative application in the CBRE job portal. Please provide the following information on your thesis in your speculative application:

Title/(desired) topic of the thesis
Type (Bachelor, Master)
College/University
Start date

General questions

Please understand that we will only discuss these topics with you in a personal exchange about a specific position. Our positions often involve factors that need to be assessed differently and your relevant professional experience also has an impact on the level of your future salary.
