Скачать или смотреть How I got my first student job in Germany as an Indian | What actually worked

If you’re an Indian student moving to Germany and wondering how to get a working student job (Werkstudent), this video is for you.

After coming to Germany with a 50% scholarship and managing my expenses through the €992 blocked account, I knew I needed additional funding. Instead of only applying through LinkedIn or job portals, I took a different route — and it worked.

In this video, I share:

👉How I landed my first working student job in Germany
👉What actually worked (and what didn’t)
👉Whether German language was required
👉How to approach professors and departments
👉What international students should realistically expect
👉Tips for Indian students looking for student jobs in Germany

This is not a “5 easy steps” video.
This is my honest experience as an Indian master’s student in Germany navigating funding, uncertainty, and late 20s career decisions.

If you’re planning to study in Germany and are concerned about:

👉Blocked account €992 per month
👉Cost of living in Germany
Then this video below will help you:
