Dear candidates (div/m/f),

Welcome to the link for initiative applications (Initiativbewerbungen).
We would like to give you some general information about a general/initiative application via this link before you submit your documents to us.
What is the "general application"?
It serves you and us as a general expression of your interest and as a initiative application for our ​organisation in general or for our projects. Since it is a speculative application, you will receive an automated response from our system only and we will only contact you personally if there is a timely fit in a department.  Otherwise, your data will be deleted within six months in accordance with data protection regulations. You can notify us of an extended retention period by clicking a separate button in the application process. Permanent storage of personal data is generally not possible.
Which documents are expected?
- Cover letter with information on your motivation, availability, framework regarding salary expectations (1 page)
- Curriculum vitae
- Your academic diploma / qualification certificates
- Proofs of additional trainings or previous engagements (references) if applicable and suitable in content
As mentioned above, we would like to point out that we are unable to process individual questions by mail for unsolicited applications and therefore offer an automated form of application and communication.
If concrete positions open up in specific projects, these will be explicitly advertised separately. 
Please feel free to check these before sending a unsolicited application.
Kind regards and we look forward to receiving your documents.
