"We are always delighted to receive applications from people with international experience"

Münster University sees itself not only as being rooted in the local region, but also as having an international orientation - in teaching, in research, among students and among its administrative staff. Using reports, background information, portraits, facts and s, we will be showing just how wide-ranging the issue is. On the basis of discussions with students, we know that they often wonder whether, and to what extent, international experience is an advantage for their later careers. In this series of s, personnel managers from various companies located in the Münsterland provide answers to these questions. The second part of our series features Christof Heimlich, Personnel Manager at Armacell, a Münster company producing insulation materials: What are the three most important criteria for your company when it selects new staff? Professional/technical qualifications and methodological competence Fitting in with our corporate culture Motivation when making an application When you recruit people, how important for you is international experience, for example in the form of work placements, voluntary work abroad or a semester spent at a foreign university? Our slogan - "Making a Difference around the World" - shows it. We are a very international company, so we are always delighted to receive applications from people with international experience. This also demonstrates to us a certain openness and flexibility with regard to working with colleagues from other cultures. In what other ways can young graduates score with you?
