Testimonials from previous interns
 
“Working as a student in DBG’s StatistiX Department really helped me gain great experience working alongside a team with a lot of knowledge. I was taught the end to end process from gathering requirements to developing code to deploying it to a live Production environment. This was a really beneficial experience”
 
“One of the stand out features of the internship programme is the fact that we had many opportunities to incorporate our working and social life.  There is a great sense of ‘work-life balance’ within Clearstream.  There is a sports and social club, which offered us the chance to join the Company soccer team, pilates and circuits classes and more. It offered me the opportunity to get to know my fellow colleagues in an informal setting.”
