FAQ

What is the application process like at Immatics?

Candidates begin by submitting an application for an open position. If selected to move forward, the first step in the interview process is typically a phone screening with a member of our Human Resources team. Subsequent interviews typically include meetings with the hiring manager and relevant team members to provide deeper insight into the role and team dynamics. In total, candidates may participate in up to three interviews, including the initial screening.

The format of the interviews—virtual or on-site—depends on the nature of the position. For roles that require on-site work, the final panel interview will typically be conducted in person at our Houston facility.

I need an accommodation in order to be able to participate in the interview process. Is that possible?

Yes.  Please notify our recruiter so that we can make reasonable accommodations of disabilities during the interview process.

 

Am I required to complete a background check and drug screening upon receiving an offer?

Yes. As part of our pre-employment process, Immatics requires all candidates to complete a comprehensive background check and drug screening to confirm employment eligibility.

 

I see a personality assessment is required as part of the application process. What does this measure, and could I be disqualified based on my results?

The personality assessment is designed to help evaluate alignment between a candidate’s behavioral traits and the requirements of the role. Please note that assessment results are considered alongside other elements such as experience, skills and interview performance to form a holistic view of each candidate’s potential fit within Immatics.

Can I apply for multiple positions at the same time?

Yes, you can. However, we recommend that you carefully choose positions that align closely with your skills and qualifications.

Can I send unsolicited applications?

No. It is preferred that you submit your application through our job portal.

Can I apply for an internship or thesis position at Immatics?

We provide information about all open positions on our Careers page. If there are no suitable positions listed, we unfortunately cannot offer any opportunities at that time.

What if I am currently on a work visa with limited access to work in the United States?

While you may be temporarily authorized to work in the U.S., Immatics’ current hiring policy requires candidates to be either U.S. citizens or permanent residents (Green Card holders). We are unable to sponsor employment visas at this time.

What documents should I submit with my application?

Applicants are encouraged to submit a tailored cover letter, an up-to-date curriculum vitae (CV) or résumé and any relevant certifications or supporting documentation.

How should I prepare for an upcoming interview?

Beyond your professional qualifications, we are interested in getting to know you as a person and understanding how you match up with Immatics’ mission, purpose, culture, and values.  During the interviews, we may ask you to describe how you have handled specific situations in the past — for example, how you approached a challenge or collaborated within a team — and what the outcome was. This helps us understand your way of thinking and problem solving, both of which are critical to the work that Immatics does.

If there are any specific requirements for an interview, such as preparing a presentation, we will always inform you in advance.

We also encourage you to prepare questions for us. The interviews are a two-way exchange to help both sides determine whether we are a good match.

I haven't received a response to my application, and it has been more than one month. What should I do?

If your application status in Workday still shows as “Under Review” or “Pending,” it means our recruitment team is actively reviewing candidates, and you have not been eliminated from consideration. However, if you have not received any communication in over a month, you are welcome to reach out to our team at recruitingUS@immatics.com to inquire about the status of your application. A member of our recruitment team will respond as soon as possible.

If I am selected for a position at Immatics, when can I expect to start?

We understand that each candidate’s circumstances are unique, and start dates can be discussed during the offer stage. In general, you can expect to begin employment approximately 3–4 weeks after signing your offer letter.
