This past year The College Times has followed the story of Brandon Rigby, a former automotive student who received a year-long scholarship and was accepted into the Congress-Bundestag Student Exchange Program for Young Professionals. He has spent the last six months in Germany training and working hard applying for internship positions and with great success has been accepted by the Daimler Chrysler Corporation. He will spend the next six months working there as an intern. It all started when Brandon saw a poster advertising the German internship program, applied and was accepted. He is now off on a fully paid program, experiencing life in Europe and working for a world renowned corporation. This exchange program offers a lot and doesn't require a lot. Even the ability to speak German is not mandatory but is highly suggested, according to Professor Ruediger Lehnardt Steve Cannon 95%O GRADUATING? VISA ONLINE RESEARCH.
