Career entry of international graduates
As an international graduate, you can take advantage of the services offered by our Career Service, for example on the subject of job hunting, studying after graduation or funding programs and scholarships.
As an employer for international graduates in the field of SAGE (Social Work, Health, Education and Training), you can use the services of our Career Services to publish job advertisements here, for example.
Once a semester, we invite international graduates to report on their practical experiences as alumni:
- the application phase with international educational biographies
- the onboarding phase in the international team
- everyday working life in Germany
Information on the next round of talks will be published in April.
