We need an application letter, a current photo, a complete curriculum vitae and all relevant certificates. If you apply online, you can upload the documents as a Word document, PDF, JPG or Tiff file. Please send - if possible - your documents as one complete file. You should not exceed the file size of 4 MB. You can also find more information in our applicant tips section.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR ME TO GET FEEDBACK?
  • As soon as we have received your application, you will receive a confirmation of receipt. You will then receive information as soon as possible on how to proceed.
WHAT'S THE REST OF THE PROCEDURE?
  • We will call you to make an appointment for an interview or you will receive a letter with a suggested date. You can find questions you can prepare for in advance in our applicant tips section.

    All in all, the duration of the application process and the individual steps depends, of course, on your availability. After the interview, in particular, the timeframe can vary. We will be in close contact with you and agree on the schedule together.
HOW DOES MY APPRENTICESHIP START IN THE R+S GROUP?
  • First, a kick-off event will take place at the headquarters in Fulda. Here you get to know other trainees and our corporate headquarters. You will also get to know the organisational structure and the guiding principles of the R+S Group. You will also receive a lot of information and materials on rights and duties, security regulations, data protection, etc. You will also attend introductory seminars, e.g. on materials science, or receive telephone training in the commercial area. Your instructor or your first department will then take over, depending on the type of training. Here you will get to know your job and get further information about your future training at the R+S Group.
WHAT PROSPECTS DO I HAVE AFTER MY TRAINING IN THE R+S GROUP?
  • 99% of our trainees are taken on as permanent employees. We will then offer you a wide range of further training opportunities. Whether it's further training as a chief fitter, foreman or project manager for the technical sector or a course of study for the commercial and technical sector, we will discuss your personal career path together.
