Tobias Gellert, Environmental Engineer at DAHLEM: "During my studies, I already worked in an engineering office, which however did not have a broad range of activities. After the studies, I was specifically looking for a company that offers a wide range of professional disciplines. I found this here at DAHLEM."

Sandro Mundri, a former trainee at DAHLEM, today doing further training to become a technician: "What interests me so much about my job?

Sebastian Schelewski, Dipl.-Ing., former student assistant (HiWi) and current employee at DAHLEM: "For me, the internal transition from HiWi to engineer was relatively easy - it is not always so. Everyone supported me so I could grow into my new role. In general, this has the advantage that the training period is avoided."
