Internship in Germany: Work in Europe!
Internship in Germany — an exchange program offering the opportunity to complete a professional internship in Germany. Young professionals aged 18-30 who wish to gain unique work experience in the tourism and hospitality sector can participate. To take part, applicants must have a sufficient language level — German not lower than UpperIntermediate or English at UpperIntermediate (depending on the internship location/employer). The internship in Germany is intended to expand and apply the professional skills of young specialists. Internship durations in Germany can range from 3 to 12 months. Recruitment for the program takes place year-round. Internships are usually located in suburbs and small towns. Nevertheless, Germany’s well-developed transport infrastructure should be noted. Participants can always travel quickly and comfortably around the country and get a feel for the character of German culture. The program sponsor finds one internship placement but is not obligated to provide a specific city or type of work. Participants need to be flexible regarding the employer’s location.
