Preparing for Your New Job

Your Contact Persons
 

Before starting a new job, you will have a wide range of questions. Your contacts at the institute will be happy to help:

• If you have any questions about your work or the tasks you will be performing, please contact your future supervisor or other team contact directly. Their contact information can be found on the Institute’s homepage.
  
  

• If you have any questions about your employment contract, for instance about the term (start and end dates), pay, or working hours, please contact our HR department. Please understand that Human Resources cannot give you binding information about your anticipated net income but can only give general information about your expected gross. Information about the public employees salary schedule that applies to the Institute is available here (in German). Information on taxes and social security contributions can be found on the Euraxess website.
  
  

• The Institute’s Welcome Center is your point of contact for questions about moving to and living in Hamburg as well as for other general questions about working at the Institute.
