Starting your career is probably the biggest transition you will experience after you finish your studies. Regardless of your degree level, each degree opens many new doors for your career. Whether entering the labour market in a conventional or special way, e.g. licensing, practical teacher training, trainee programme, or an internship: applying for a job takes practice. We collected various general information for all groups mentioned and for those who would like to work in academia or as freelancers, and practical aids, such as our internship and job offers portal, for example.

How does the career start succeed?

After university, the path often leads to the working world, where many new opportunities open up: from direct entry into the profession, to a trainee program, to a career in science.
