For an apprenticeship at Lessmann, we recommend that you apply about a year in advance during the summer holidays with your last annual certificate. This gives us as a company enough time to check your documents, invite you to interviews if necessary and complete the selection process. If there are still places available at a later date, you will find them on our homepage under vacancies and you can also apply at a later date.

You can either apply for specific job advertisements or submit an unsolicited application.

On your first day as a trainee at Lessmann, you can expect a structured and well-organized process that will make it easier for you to get started.

There will also be an introductory breakfast on your first day, which all trainees from all years of training will attend, and of course a round of introductions.
