Working student essentials
What this Marketing internship means for you in Germany — pay rules, social contributions, and what international students should check before applying.

Working student rulesSocial contributions
Mandatory internships are largely exempt from social contributions. Voluntary internships are treated like regular employment once they run long enough, so contributions usually apply.
