This program is for youths between the ages of 18 and 30 who are graduates of a university or community college. Applicants must have a specialization in industry, commerce, science, or technology. Applicants must have a working knowledge of German and at least one year's work experience in their field of study. This program offers applicants the opportunity to work in term employment for a period of six to 18 months.
Jobs start at various times throughout the year, depending upon the employer's needs.
Successful applicants will work in positions related to their field of study. Positions depend upon the opportunities identified. The German Embassy sends the names of approved applicants to a labour placement service in Germany so that a job search can be conducted. However, applicants are also advised to seek employment on their own. While working in this program, youths earn a wage, which depends upon the position obtained.
