Starting out

And so the adventure begins…

Entering the Linde world directly from school.

Find the right opportunity for you


School Students

Linde can provide the start you need to pursue your passion as you embark on an exciting new chapter of your life. So if you’re interested in a commercial, industrial or technical profession, you’ll find your options here.

Apprenticeships

The apprentice of today is the qualified expert of tomorrow.

Learn your craft with us and gain a well-rounded, widely recognised skill set that will prepare you for working at Linde or indeed continuing with further training. 

At Linde, we firmly believe in learning by doing. We’ll give you your own responsibilities on real Linde projects. You’ll be taken under the wings of our experienced supervisors as you work with state-of-the-art technology in our training centres. We’ll do all we can to see you grow both professionally and personally. 

Your profile 

We seek apprentices who show passion for what they do. We want team players who can also be trusted with autonomy, can set their own targets, bring ideas to the table and give their best every day.

Cooperative studies

Putting theory into practice.

What better way to prepare for a career at Linde than by combining academic learning with practical working experience? That's what you get through our cooperative study programmes.

In Germany we work together with the Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW) Stuttgart and Mannheim. Our engineering study programmes at Mannheim, with special focus on process engineering, are stand-out examples of the cooperative study model.

Your profile

We seek students who show passion and are hungry for knowledge. We want team players who can also be trusted with autonomy, can set their own targets, bring ideas to the table and give their best every day.


Internships for school students

Dive into the work life at Linde.

Are you leaving school and ready to start your career but aren’t exactly sure what you want to do? Then an internship at Linde will provide all the insight you need about the day-to-day business in a global, leading company.

In Pullach near Munich (Germany) we offer internship opportunities in commercial and technical areas for both apprenticeships and cooperative studies.

During our cooperative studies internships, you’ll learn about our courses and our business together with some of our current cooperative students. For our apprenticeship internships you’ll get an insider view of what it’s like to be an office management clerk or a technical specialist.

Your profile

We seek highly motivated, school students from the 9th to 12th grade. We want team players who give their best every day.
