Hi all,

a practical term is a 6 month period, where students from so called 
Fachhochschulen ( a kind of university in Germany ) go to a company to 
learn the "real" work they will have to do as engineers later. They try 
to do high tech work as good as they can, but they don't it for free. 
They dont get too much, but something about 1.000 DM ( ca. $700 ) is the 
average.

The goal is not just to let them work anything, but to do a kind of 
little project, instructed by an engineer, or within a team.

It is also possible to do this abroad.

So if you want good, motivated, young people try students. 
( if you have something, please call me! )

regards, Markus
