Gap Year Program
About to graduate from your Bachelor’s degree and planning to start your Master’s degree in the following year? But you are really eager to gain practical experience beforehand?
The program is aimed at Bachelor's graduates who would like to gain practical experience before starting their Master's degree. With just one application, you have the opportunity to experience the diversity of the Oetker Group at various locations in Germany for a period of around ten months!
You will find more information about the application phase for the GYP 2025/26 on this page in spring 2025!
Gap Year Program 2025 / 2026
In October 2025, you will start as a gap year intern at one of our companies and gain your first experience within the Oetker Group. After five months, you will move to the second Group company.
A varied supporting program with a kick-off and final event in person as well as regular digital events will also give you insights into other companies in the Group and include exciting workshops on relevant topics.
The practical experience you gain will give you confidence in your choice of Master's degree and allow you to build up a network within the Oetker Group.
Grow in the various teams of our family business and open up new perspectives!
You are welcome to visit our social media channels and those of our Group companies.
