Internship
|
"Working or studying abroad gives you a new perspective on work culture and cultural differences in general. In my case, that's the most important thing besides learning another language. If possible, a stay abroad can broaden one's perspective and improve communication with different people in different situations."
Internship

"The most important experience I gained in my internships was working in different departments, areas, etc. and therefore meeting a lot of different people with different backgrounds (knowledge, culture, etc.). As a student, internships or work experience in general are crucial, so I would advise to work as much as possible and in as many different areas as possible."
"No two careers are alike. Create your own path and do what you love and what fulfills you."
