Your chance to grow.

As a working student, you will work in one of our teams for a longer period of time and get to know the daily work routine thoroughly. This gives you a good orientation for your later professional life. Joining us a working student is therefore a valuable and meaningful addition to your studies. For example, stay in touch with us after your internship and support us in our day-to-day business or in project work.

General conditions.

Employment as a working student is only possible if you have outstanding examinations and are not in a distance learning, part-time or holiday semester in the current semester.
The duration of employment is at least three months and is limited to a maximum of 24 months.
Your working hours may vary. During the lecture period, you may not exceed 15 or 20 hours per week.

Insights from the team

Experiences of our working students.

It was important for me to gain experience and learn new things for my professional life. Data and artificial intelligence play an ever-increasing role in our lives, which is why I am very happy to have found my working student position in the 'Data Transformation Office'.

I was able to take on my own projects and independently organize photo and video shoots. Being treated as a full team member, I was trusted to handle my tasks with a high level of responsibility. Along the way, I learned a lot professionally and built valuable connections.

Our collaboration is open and genuinely on equal terms. I can contribute my own ideas, receive honest feedback, and have the trust to present results independently at an early stage – and that’s exactly what helps me grow the most, both professionally and personally.
