Employment opportunities in Germany

Germany is a famous study abroad destination for international students who are willing to pursue undergraduate or graduate studies. Germany is home to many such national and global companies offering countless job opportunities to international students. International students from other countries (Non-EU and EEA) are allowed to work part-time in Germany alongside their studies for 120 full days or 240 half days per year(20 hours per week). A student, on average, earns anywhere between 9.5 to 18 euros an hour and approximately around 700 euros a month.

The majority of the students prefer to work after completing their studies in Germany. International students who wish to stay back and work after finishing their studies can stay back up to 18 months to seek employment. In this case, the student needs to apply for a German Residence permit that would allow them to take up gainful employment in the country.
