Is this a working student role or an internship?

This is a working student (Werkstudent) position — part-time alongside your studies, capped at 20 hours a week during term time.

How many hours a week can I work?

Working students in Germany may work up to 20 hours per week during the semester and full-time during the semester breaks. Going over 20 hours in term time can cost you the working-student health-insurance rate.

What can I earn in a Operations role in Rostock?

The employer hasn't published a figure. Working student pay in Germany usually runs from about €13 to €20 per hour for Operations roles, depending on city and experience. Use the salary tools to estimate your take-home pay.

Do I need to speak German for this role?

This role can be done in English — German isn't required. It's a good fit if you're still learning the language.

Can international students apply?

Yes. International students, including those from outside the EU, can take working student roles within the 140 full / 280 half-day annual work limit (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). Confirm the conditions on your residence permit before you apply.

Working student rules

Social contributions
