Entry Into
ip.labs
Soon after you begin, we trust you to take over the responsibility for a specific project area. In the beginning this is new.

Within the first few weeks, your team leader can answer any organizational or technical questions that may arise.

Once we have received your complete application, we would be happy to discuss those topics with you. Show us that you can put your theoretical knowledge to work on a practical problem. Naturally, we will aid you in answering technical and personal questions. In return you will receive feedback from our experts, technical equipment for your work and a salary.

You will work for several weeks or months as a full team member on a specific software project. During your internship you will familiarize yourself with our internal operations and working procedures. During this time you will be chaperoned by a team member. Once you have finished your internship, you will receive detailed feedback and a certificate.
