Application process

Apply online

We are digital and committed to sustainability, so we look forward to receiving your online application via our homepage.

As soon as your application has been received online, you will receive a confirmation of receipt by e-mail. We look forward to getting to know you through your dossier and will check whether your qualifications, skills, and personality fit the advertised position and Psychiatrie St.Gallen. We will then get back to you.

In a personal interview, we get to know each other and you learn more about Psychiatrie St.Gallen, the advertised position, and the challenges.

In the second round, we would like to get an even better picture of you and find out together whether we are a good match. You will also have the opportunity to meet your future team.

You will receive a telephone offer from us if we decide in your favour after the second interview and will be asked whether you are still convinced by us. If we agree, we will prepare your contract.

In the following days, we will send you the contract in duplicate by post. Along with the contract, you will receive relevant information about your employment.

Between accepting the position and the first day of work, you as a new employee can already access relevant internal information. This allows you to form a detailed picture of the company and prepare for the job.

On the first day, you will be onboarded in your new team and with other colleagues. You will set up your new workplace and get an overview of your upcoming tasks. You will also receive your individual induction plan, which will help you find your way around quickly.
