HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

Out of the classroom
Into the working world

Are you ready to embark upon a career? Swoboda offers you many different opportunities to do this. For example, you can attend a trial day, conduct an internship, enroll in an exciting training program, or participate in a dual study program with university courses and on-the-job training. One thing we can promise you from the outset: We will be there to support you from your very first day with us. It is time to begin your future with Swoboda.

Are you 13 or older, or in the seventh grade or a higher grade? Are you interested in a profession associated with our company but are still unsure if it is really the right profession for you? Then why not apply for one of our internships for high school students? That way you can find out if the job you are interested in really is right for you.

Be sure to send the following documents with your application:

  • A brief letter mentioning your desired field and a time period when you’d be available (please also include an alternative time period)
  • A short description of yourself, including all relevant personal data, and a copy of your most recent report card
  • Proof of insurance coverage from your school (if you are still in school)

Our training programs enable you to lay the foundation for a career that offers you great prospects. Our team of dedicated instructors and trainers will accompany you through the first phase of your professional career and teach you everything you need to know. We are not just interested in teaching you the professional skills you need, as your personal development is also very important to us. That is why our training programs include workshops on important social issues as well. You will not miss out on any fun either, since you will be able to participate in interesting trainee events and exciting excursions.

Are you looking to launch your professional career and obtain a respected technical degree? We offer you the opportunity to participate in a training program with an integrated course of study. While you’re studying at a university or technical college, you’ll receive training from us in a profession that combines mechanical and electronic elements. You’ll thus benefit from the combination of theory and practical training.

STUDENTS

Putting what you learn
to work

Things cannot always be reduced to an “either-or” option. Why not combine theory with practice by taking advantage of the opportunities Swoboda offers students in this regard? For example, you can enroll in a dual study program with university courses, conduct an internship, join us as a working student, or write your thesis while working at our company. You will gain an exciting insight into the world of Swoboda while you work in an interesting specialized area at a dynamic technology company. Experienced advisers will be on hand to assist you and give you valuable tips whenever you need them.

Looking to launch your professional career and obtain a respected technical degree? We offer you the opportunity to participate in a training program with an integrated course of study. While you are studying at a university or technical college, you will receive training from us in a profession that combines mechanical and electronic elements. You will thus benefit from the combination of theory and practical training.

Theoretical knowledge is only valuable if it can actually be applied. When you participate in one of our “practical semesters” or internship programs, you obtain an up-close look at our operations and get to work in a project that is tailored to your training and education needs. In this way, you supplement your theoretical expertise with practical experience and knowledge.

Working students are incorporated into our daily operations from the very beginning so that they can prepare step by step for their entry into the working world. Our flexible working hours ensure that you as a working student can optimally combine your studies and your job – and also have time left over for yourself, of course.

Are you approaching the end of your studies? We will be happy to help supervise your thesis, regardless of whether it is for a Bachelor or Master degree, or project-related. And because theory alone cannot always get you where you need to go, we will make sure you have plenty of opportunity to address the practical side of your thesis topic.
