Applying with disabilities and/or chronic illnesses

This website is directed at students with disabilities and/or chronic illnesses who are currently starting their career. By “disabilities” we include both physical and psychological ones.


Are you having these concerns?:

  • Where and how do I find a job suiting my situation?
  • How do I deal with my disability/illness during the application process?
  • Is it legal to be asked about my disability/illness and do I have to answer truthfully?
  • Is it worth to apply for a disabled ID card (Schwerbehindertenausweis)?
  • Where do I find support for my specific situation?


Then this is the right place for you. We listed several references to indicate your opportunities to be consulted and supported.
