WORK PLACEMENTS

Explore potential careers

Have you gone past the stage of wanting to be an astronaut or a vet? Perhaps you're wondering what else is out there, but you'd like a concrete idea of what's right for you. A work placement is a great way to gain an insight into the world of work while you're still at school.

At MEIKO, we pride ourselves on helping school pupils gain greater clarity about their career choices. We offer the chance to spend one or two weeks on a placement with us, getting a feel for the day-to-day life of working for a company. After all, you won't know what it's like until you try it!

Unfortunately, we don't offer placements in our administration or engineering departments, but our production department offers all sorts of options for a variety of vocations. In the logistics field, we offer work placements as warehouse specialists (m/f/x), and if you're interested in information technology, you might enjoy a placement as an IT specialist (m/f/x).

Please send enquiries about placements to ausbildung@meiko.de. Include your CV and a cover letter specifying your desired profession and preferred placement period.
