Apprenticeship
As a reliable and modern employer, we attach great importance to a qualified apprenticeship. It is understood and practised as an investment in the future. For KLK EMMERICH GmbH, the basic principle is: apprentice today, qualified specialist tomorrow.
Moreover, the apprenticeship offers our apprentices a comparatively high salary right from the start, which can make a significant contribution to the big step into independence. The holiday entitlement amounts to 30 days per year during the entire training period.
We also advise and inform tomorrow’s talents about our apprenticeships at all apprenticeship and job fairs in the local area of Emmerich am Rhein. Information about these events can usually be found in the local press. Why not come and visit us at the next opportunity and maybe you will soon be starting with us!
