Interviewing at ASML: Tips and tricks

Use the ASML job search to find a position that matches your skill set. Click the "Apply now" button on any open job listing at ASML, which will direct you to the ASML career portal. From there, you can fill out the form and submit your application. We are unable to accept job applications submitted any other way, such as via email.

A recruitment specialist in the department of the open position will review your resume and cover letter.

An ASML recruiter will contact you within two weeks if we have questions about your application or if we would like to schedule an interview.

We encourage you to apply as soon as possible, as the job listing expiration date depends on the number of qualified applicants.

Yes, but we encourage you to only apply for jobs that match your background and experience. If you are invited for the second round of interviews for both positions, you will need to choose with which position you would like to proceed.

After you have filled out the online application for a job at ASML, you will see an option to create a personal profile in the career portal. After creating a profile, you can log in and view the status of your job application.

If your application status appears as "closed", it means that you were not selected to proceed to the next step of the hiring process. We encourage you to search for a job at ASML that matches your skill set and apply again.

The ASML interview process will vary depending on the job you are applying for as well as which country you are applying in. Generally, however, you may have two or more interviews for a job at ASML. The first interview, which takes place with the position’s hiring manager and a member of the team, assesses your background, skills and compatibility with the team.

If you are invited for a second interview, you may be asked to complete an online assessment that should be submitted before the interview takes place. The second interview takes place with a project leader, architect or different team member. You may also be invited to a third interview with the human resources (HR) department. If all interviews are successful, you will then receive a job offer from HR.

Our virtual interview scheduling assistant, called Rex, will contact you to set up the interview. Rex will send you an email or text message (WhatsApp or SMS) that includes information about the format of the interview, the location, date, and the interviewers, once the interview details have been arranged.

The talent exploration questionnaire is purely used as a conversation starter for your second interview. Once you've received it, we encourage you to complete it as soon as possible, and at least two days before your next interview with ASML

It depends on the country in which you are applying for a job, but you should generally receive feedback within five working days.

Please contact the recruiter that sent you the interview confirmation.

ASML will provide support for immigration, travel, shipping personal belongings, cultural awareness and language training, and tax advice.

If your spouse is a good fit for another ASML vacancy, you can both join the ASML referral program.
