Requirements

You have at least an intermediate school diploma (Mittlere Reife) or are about to graduate. You have good to very good German skills and communicate confidently in German, orally and in writing. You need this for advising our customers and for vocational school lessons. You like to approach people and enjoy advising them personally.
