Application FAQs
Heading
Is there an age limit to apply?
The legal age to work at Delivery Hero is 18 years old.
Can I edit my application after it's sent?
Please be careful when you submit your job application! The main sections, including contact data, resume etc, cannot be edited once the application has been submitted.
As a candidate, you can always edit your answers to "Screening questions".
What is the application process?
Visit our Careers Page and search for the position that you're interested in by using the 'search' tab.
Choose 'Apply', then submit your personal information, social links, and CV - and we wish you the best of luck!
For information regarding our interview process, check out the How We Hire page.
Do I need to be a university graduate?
The requirements vary based on the position. Candidates who meet the basic requirements will be invited for an interview where their skills and fit for the role will be further assessed.
Ultimately, we are looking for the most qualified candidate who can excel in this role and contribute significantly to our team.

What benefits are on offer?
Ensuring all our Heroes are looked after, happy, and healthy is always our priority. Because if you’re in good shape, then we’re in good shape!
Learn more about our Perks on our Life as a Hero page.
Do I need health insurance?
Germany has one of the best healthcare systems in the world. As an employee, it is mandatory to have a German health insurance (public health insurance or private health insurance).
You need to choose your health insurance provider (Krankenkasse), which are non-profit associations linked to the government health scheme. Some options are: Barmer, Techniker Krankenkasse, AOK and DAK.
There are lots of different public health insurance bodies with slightly different offerings, so do some research (there are comparison tools online) to make sure you choose one that fits your needs.
Your social security number will automatically be requested by your health insurance provider, and mailed to your registered address.
Do I get subsidized travel?
We offer employees a Public Transportation Ticket Discount.
Berlin has an extensive public transport network consisting of the U-bahn, S-bahn, buses, trams and trains (and of course the infamous scooters and bikes).
Many people get a monthly subscription that renews automatically. You can request this through Delivery Hero, and we also offer a discount for employees.
This should help you on the way to making a home in Berlin. We can’t wait to welcome you!

Heading
How long do I have to apply?
We highly recommend applying as early as possible! If the position is filled, our hiring team will inform you.
When you apply, you'll have the option to consent to storing your application and data in our candidate portal for future opportunities as well!
Do I need a CV?
To apply for a position, you'll need to submit your CV through our career site under the job you're interested in.
Including a photo on your CV is optional and entirely up to you. Your CV should contain an overview of your experience and ideally be no more than a few pages long. Please ensure it highlights your relevant skills and accomplishments.
For more details and to submit your CV, visit our career site and follow the instructions provided for each job listing.
What should be included in the cover letter?
Cover letters are optional, but we recommend telling us a little it about yourself (include relevant experience to the role you're applying for), and why you'd be a good fit for Delivery Hero!
Is there a dress code?
Our inclusive culture embraces individuality and self-expression, allowing employees the freedom to showcase their unique styles, as detailed on the DE&I page , which talks about our welcoming and diverse workplace environment.
Is Delivery Hero a family-friendly company?
Yes, we have many initiatives to support parents. One of our employee resource groups, Parent Heroes, endeavours to build connections with all parts of the company to achieve their mission. They are partnering on multiple projects with stakeholders across the company, as well as multiple teams within the People & Culture organisation.
Please check out our Parent Heroes page to learn more!
Should my cover letter and CV be written in English or German?
English is our working language, but some roles may require German proficiency. We recommend applying in English, but feel free to include German written documents if relevant. Best of luck!
Is there a remote work policy?
We currently have a hybrid work policy and some remote work options depending on eligibility.
What if I get sick?
You can take up to 3 days of sick leave without needing a doctor's note.
If you're employed in Germany, you're legally entitled to paid sick leave for up to 6 weeks, but you'll need a sick note ('Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigung') from your doctor to qualify.
If you get sick, be sure to follow the necessary steps to provide the required documentation.
Do I need to work from the office?
We have a hybrid work policy where employees are expected to be in the office at least twice a week.
