The Story Behind the Role

As a mandatory, unpaid intern, how does the team ensure I gain substantial, practical experience and develop skills that are directly transferable to my future career, making the investment of my time truly worthwhile?

Look, we get it. 'Unpaid' can sound daunting. But here at [Company Name], we view mandatory internships as a critical pipeline for future talent. Our goal isn't just to have you tick a box for your studies, but to integrate you fully into our marketing efforts. You'll be working directly on social media strategy, content creation, and real B2B e-commerce projects. We're a growing startup, which means less red tape and more opportunities to own tasks, see immediate impact, and learn from experienced digital marketers. Many of our former interns have gone on to full-time roles here because they proved their value and we invested in their growth from day one. It's hands-on, fast-paced, and genuinely designed to launch your career.

Given the fast-paced nature of a growing e-commerce startup, how are interns actively involved in shaping our digital marketing strategies or contributing to the innovation of B2B digitalization projects?

Great question! We don't just hand you busywork. From day one, you'll be contributing to our content calendar, brainstorming ideas for new campaigns across LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok, and even getting insights into our automation and conversion optimization efforts. We value fresh perspectives, especially from students who are often closer to emerging trends. For instance, an intern recently suggested a new TikTok strategy that significantly boosted our engagement with a specific B2B audience. You'll be part of the discussions, have a voice, and see your ideas come to life, directly impacting our clients' digital transformation.

The job description mentions an 'Option auf Weiterbeschäftigung'. Can you elaborate on the typical path for successful interns who wish to continue their journey with the company after their internship?

Absolutely! We see this internship as an extended interview, a chance for both of us to see if it's a great long-term fit. If you excel during your mandatory internship – showing initiative, strong team collaboration, and a genuine passion for digital marketing – we actively look for opportunities to bring you on board. This could be as a working student ('Werkstudent') during your studies, or even a full-time junior role upon graduation. We're investing in you from day one, and we prefer to promote from within, building our team with individuals who already understand our culture and mission. Your success here is directly linked to our willingness to offer you continued, growth-oriented employment.
