Bewerbungsgespräch vs Interview

interview

Interview and Bewerbungsgespräch can both refer to the conversation held to assess a job application. Bewerbungsgespräch explicitly refers to this application context, while Interview can also mean questioning for the media, research, or forming opinions. When the subject is an advertised position, Bewerbungsgespräch is the more unambiguous choice; Interview is still possible.
