“I like reading about tech news, and when I saw online that Nova acquired Sentronics in Mannheim,
I thought a semiconductor facility sounded like a fascinating place to work.
I saw they had an opening for a dual-study student, applied, and joined the team.
Now I’m in a dual-study program in business administration at DHBW Mannheim.
That means three months at university studying economics, logistics, accounting, and marketing,
and then three months working here at Sentronics like any regular employee.
I’ve worked in logistics, procurement, and accounting, booking invoices,
helping with payment preparation, and trying to make my coworkers' daily work as easy as possible.
Moving between departments helps me see the bigger picture of how the whole company works, rather than just learning the theory in class.
What surprised me most was how warm and helpful everyone was from day one,
especially knowing it’s not always easy for a student to integrate into a company.
A very cool highlight was the company raffle held recently.
Several colleagues and I were lucky enough to receive tickets to a Rhein-Neckar Löwen handball game.
The catering and food were excellent, but the best part was getting the chance to meet and spend time with colleagues I hadn't had the opportunity to connect with before.”
