You or you?
For us, the case is clear. We live a culture of "du" (informal you). Therefore, we communicate in this way already during the application process and in the interviews.
What you do with us makes sense!

You fit perfectly with us if the well-being of elderly people is close to your heart, if you appreciate professionalism and value authenticity, friendliness, and openness in daily interactions. We meet each other at eye level across all hierarchical levels and live a respectful "du" culture.
