As Germany is a realm of technology, job opportunities are higher for international scholars. Many students work part-time to finance their studies and foreign students can do the same without having to get a work permit. If you come from a non-EU country the sum of time you are allowed to work is limited to 90 days per year with 8 hour working days, or 180 half days per year. Pay for student jobs is typically € 6-10 per hour. Vacancies are often promoted on newspaper websites, via student unions or the University. All students must acquire German Language course as it is mandatory for practical training and to fetch a job A final ‘pull’ factor attracting growing numbers of students to Germany is the prospect of staying on to work after graduation. Europe’s largest economy and most industrialized nation, Germany rebounded quickly and convincingly from the global financial crisis of 2008- 9, and today offers one of the world’s most resilient job markets. Fluency in German is a definite asset when seeking work. However, some roles are available without this requirement, particularly in international corporations and scientific research institutes. Students have an option to stay in Germany for 18 months after completion of their work
