Durée du contrat
“Das Beschäftigungsverhältnis kann zum 01.01.2027 begonnen werden und ist befristet bis zum 31.12.2029, vorbehaltlich der Mittelbereitstellung.”
Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading
The key word here is « befristet »: this is not designed as a long-term appointment, but as research tied to a project and its timetable. The application should therefore quickly show that you can work across the lab, sequencing and fieldwork, with scientific writing in both German and English. If your degree was earned abroad, start the ZAB process now, because it can slow the review more than a missing detail in the CV. Submit an application where the CV highlights, right at the top, your lab methods, mobility and field autonomy.
