Inside EXIAS

Marie

Team: Analytical Performance
Position: Intern Lab Engineer

What was your role at EXIAS, and which project did you work on?
During my internship, I was part of the Analytics team and worked actively in two different labs, where I ran various measurement series on blood, plasma, and aqueous solutions every day. I regularly worked with syringes, capillaries, and pipettes, and also used the centrifuge and the tonometer as part of my tasks, to ensure reliable and precise results.

I was warmly welcomed into the team from day one and was able to make an active contribution. What I valued most was the collegial atmosphere and the straightforward way everyone worked together as equals.

Would you recommend an internship at EXIAS? If so, to whom?
Yes, I'd absolutely recommend an internship here – in fact, this was already my second time in a row, in the same position and department. I'd particularly recommend it to students from scientific or technical fields. Anyone who wants to gain hands-on experience in a dynamic, growing environment is in exactly the right place.

In your experience, what defines EXIAS and #TeamEXIAS?
The working atmosphere is very good. One reason for that is certainly that the whole EXIAS team is helpful, skilled, and friendly.

That's how I got to know a lot of people and made real friendships.

What did you learn during your internship that will help you in your future career?
Above all, I learned to work independently. That included developing my own ideas and solutions, communicating them, and implementing them on my own. You also gain valuable insight into the industry and pick up knowledge that helps both in your studies and later in your career.

Would you recommend an internship at EXIAS? If so, to whom?
Yes, definitely – especially to students in scientific programs such as Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, or Physics, who get the chance to apply their academic knowledge in practice.

A Wide Range of Opportunities at EXIAS

Four areas of responsibility, four personalities – and one unanimous verdict: all four would recommend an internship at EXIAS, especially to students from scientific or technical fields such as Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, or Physics.

EXIAS offers far more than just an internship: from R&D to production and quality management, all the way to Marketing & Distribution and second-level customer support, everything is handled in-house. That means there's a correspondingly wide range of ways to get started – not just as an intern, but also through the positions we regularly have open. And we're always happy to receive speculative applications, too.
