INTERNSHIP OFFERS
For internship offers, please refer to databases such as Europe Express and JOE – Job Offer Exchange. Aside from these permanent offers in our region, we also recommend that you look for an internship on your own, since the number of places offered in these databases is limited. German internship databases, the Chamber of Commerce and the Yellow Pages offer a good opportunity for finding internships.
