Deutsche Bahn has said it wants to hire 100,000 people over the coming years with 25,000 to be hired in 2020. This goal remains unchanged, despite the current coronavirus pandemic.

However, Deutsche Bahn has now made quick changes meaning that the thousands of interviews are now taking place digitally. DB’s recruitment events are also taking place using digital avenues. Once hired, Deutsche Bahn will provide job training via virtual learning formats. Given the amount of economic uncertainty faced by so many as a result of the outbreak, Deutsche Bahn wants to emphasise that it has reached an agreement with unions to ensure that staff have safe jobs and that parents are supported.
