If I apply for internship in architecture and I don`t have good knowledge in German language, do I have a chance to enter? Or when does it starts, do I have time to learn German till than?
Thank You
Dear Elena,
please read through the text thoroughly – "Until the beginning of March the companies should decide for a candidate. The start of the internships is planned by end May / beginning of June. Intensive language courses start in the second half of May."
And for architecture, you need to have a good command of German, so I would advise you to take up some German classes and try to apply next year.
Many happy classes,
Kristina, mladiinfo
