Up to 2 years. We generally start off with a contract of 6 months to 1 year, which can be extended up to 3 times. The deciding factor will be the needs of the department in which you are employed.

We have a variety of specific working time models for each location. You can choose the right model for you with your line manager. You may work a maximum of 20 hours per week.

Work based on trust is our standard. You can organise your working hours yourself on your specified working days, but you must document them.

Our working students have a statutory holiday entitlement of 20 days based on a 5-day working week. To ensure that each and every individual gets an adequate break, we calculate your holiday entitlement on a pro rata basis according to the individual working hours agreed in your contract.

Yes. Every new employee starts with our Welcome Day on their first day at work. You will receive an invitation to this in due course. In the first half of the day, you will be given key information about the company, our corporate culture and our products. You will also have the opportunity to take a tour of the factory and sign up for a test drive of one of our trucks or buses on our test track. We aim to ensure that our working students are best prepared from the outset and feel like an important part of our team.

Absolutely! We are proud to offer our working students valuable experience and in-depth knowledge that will help them on their future career path. At the end of your working student placement, we will be happy to provide you with a reference confirming your performance and skills during your time with us.

Students attending a part-time university (such as FOM) are not legally recognised as working students and are therefore fully liable to pay social security contributions, so we are unable to employ them as working students.
