Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a working student and an intern?
Working students work part-time alongside their studies (max. 20 hrs/week during lectures) and are regularly employed with the working student privilege (reduced social contributions). Interns typically work full-time for a limited period. Working students earn on average 12-18 EUR/hr and continuously gain work experience.
What are the benefits of a working student position?
As a working student, you benefit from the working student privilege (no contributions to health, care, and unemployment insurance), gain relevant work experience alongside your studies, earn a fixed hourly wage, and often have the chance of permanent employment after graduation.
How many hours can I work as a working student?
During the lecture period, a maximum of 20 hours per week. During semester breaks, you may work up to 40 hours. Exceeding the 20-hour limit during lectures voids the working student privilege, resulting in full social insurance contributions.
