We are looking for you.

Cover letter, CV, last two school reports, work placement references (if applicable)

Yes, if you are still a minor.

Detailed information about this can be found on our website under the heading “Traineeships”.

Sorry, we cannot offer any work placements at present.

For our Industrial Management Assistant traineeship, we base our decision first on an aptitude test and then a personal interview. In the case of all other traineeships, we would like to meet applicants during a work placement day, following which our decision will be made.

You can send us your application right now. The selection procedure always starts one year beforehand. For example, if you would like to begin your traineeship on 1 August 2018, we need to receive your application no later than autumn 2017.

Our Personnel Department in Mainz will be happy to answer any questions you might have.

When you send an online application, you will automatically be e-mailed confirmation on receipt. When you send application documentation in physical form you will be sent confirmation by post, but this may take a few days.

Please understand that the application procedure may take some time. It may even take up to four weeks after the application deadline indicated in the job advertisement before you hear from us. Please do not contact us by e-mail to enquire about the status of your application until this period has passed.

After the deadline has passed, you are welcome to send a speculative application for the position in question, as the active selection procedure will usually have been completed by this point.

Please apply for one position that appeals most to you. If, based on your qualifications, we feel that you would be suitable for other positions as well, we will automatically include you in other selection procedures.

Generally speaking, all applications are collected up until the indicated deadline. Any applications received by that point are then selected by our Personnel Department and passed on to the department in question. Following this, the most suitable applicants are invited for an initial interview.

Yes, you are welcome to send a speculative application. However, you should be aware that this type of application rarely results in a position being offered.

Yes, definitely. Although we can determine your most recent area of activity based on your CV, it is not possible for us to know what type of work you are interested in.

As with any other type of application, we would ask you to send us all the relevant documentation. However, given that these will be distributed to the relevant department, it may take some time before you hear from us.
