Top Companies Offering Internships in Frankfurt (Oct 2026)

You want an internship in Frankfurt and you need to know who is actually hiring before you send another application. Here is the picture from the JobRise live jobs feed on 14 October 2026: 13 open internship listings in Frankfurt, all 13 posted in the last 30 days, and 11 of them in just the last 7 days.

That last number matters more than the total. This is a fast-moving slice, not a stale board, so companies are reading applications right now.

The companies ranked by open listings#

Counted from listing titles only, no company claims beyond what the feed shows:

• Bosch Group, 3 open listings
• Westbridge Gruppe, 2 open listings
• Miebach Consulting GmbH, 1
• Deutscher Fußball-Bund, 1
• Implify, 1
• AndCompany, 1
• Debitos GmbH, 1
• Lissi GmbH, 1
• Stableton Financial AG, 1
• ARCHIMED, 1

Bosch Group leads with 3, including "Praktikum im Bereich Marketing, Unternehmenskommunikation und Interne Kommunikation". Westbridge Gruppe follows with 2 working student roles: "Working Student International Energy Advisory (m/w/d)" and "Working Student Finance (m/w/d)".

The other eight companies show one listing each. That long tail is where most of your chances live, and where a single well-targeted application beats five generic ones.

How Frankfurt compares with Germany#

Frankfurt has 93 open listings across all categories on this snapshot date. The whole country shows 341 Internships listings, so Frankfurt holds a meaningful share of the German internship market for its size.

Read the country-level picture in the JobRise Hiring Report: Germany, which tracks these numbers over time instead of freezing one day.

Two job types split the 13 Frankfurt listings: 12 Full-time and 1 Part-time. And 8 of the 13 carry clearly entry-level titles, intern, working student, or Werkstudent, so most of this slice is genuinely open to students.

No listing in this slice shows a salary. If pay matters to you, and it should, ask in the first call and check the official sources for current minimum wage and internship pay rules in Germany.

How to target each type of employer#

The 10 companies fall into three buckets, and each needs a different pitch.

Large corporate (Bosch Group). Apply to the exact requisition, mention the specific team, marketing and corporate communications in this case, and keep the tone formal. Big HR teams screen on keywords, so mirror the German title's wording in your first line.

Recruiters and staffing firms (Westbridge Gruppe, Implify, AndCompany). These firms place people into client projects. Ask which client the role sits with, what the contract length is, and whether the position converts later. That question alone separates you from 90% of applicants.

Specialist and mid-size (Miebach Consulting GmbH, Deutscher Fußball-Bund, Debitos GmbH, Lissi GmbH, Stableton Financial AG, ARCHIMED). One hiring manager reads everything. Write to that person directly, reference the exact title, like "Werkstudentin Simulation" or "Praktikum Trainerinnen-Entwicklung (m/w/d)", and show you understood the work.

One opinionated take: the two Westbridge Gruppe roles are the fastest route in, because working student positions at staffing firms hire on availability and fit, not on a perfect grade record.

Referral and outreach scripts#

Cold messages fail when they ask for a job. Ask for 12 minutes of context instead.

LinkedIn message to a team member:

"Hi [Name], I saw the 'Working Student Finance (m/w/d)' opening at Westbridge Gruppe and I'm a [your field] student at [university], available 20h/week from [date]. Would you have 12 minutes to tell me what the first three months look like? No pressure to refer me, I'd just value the context."

Email to a hiring manager at a mid-size firm:

"Subject: Werkstudent*in Simulation, question about the tooling

Dear [Name], I'm applying for the Werkstudent*in Simulation role. I've used [specific tool] in [one concrete project, one line]. Before I apply, could you confirm the team works mainly with [area]? Happy to send a two-line summary of that project if useful. Best, [Name], [phone], [LinkedIn]."

Referral ask to a warm contact:

"Hi [Name], hope the new role is treating you well. I'm applying to the Praktikum Trainer*innen-Entwicklung position at Deutscher Fußball-Bund. If you know anyone on that team, would you be comfortable pointing me their way? I'll send them my CV directly so it costs you 30 seconds."

Notice what all three do: exact job title, one specific detail, one low-effort ask.

Your 7-step plan#

1. Open the Frankfurt internship feed and save the 13 listings today, before the next batch pushes them down.
2. Rank them: Bosch Group and Westbridge Gruppe first, then the single-listing companies where you match the title closely.
3. Run each employer through the free company insights tool so you walk in knowing the size, the sector, and the hiring pattern.
4. Rewrite your CV for each title. Mirror the German wording, because screening software and HR both scan for it.
5. Send the outreach message to one person per company before you apply, ideally a team member, not the careers inbox.
6. Apply within 48 hours of the message. 11 of these 13 listings went up in the last week, so speed beats polish.
7. Log every contact and follow up once after 7 days. Then repeat the loop with the next 13.

Frankfurt's 93 open listings across all categories mean the internship slice is one channel among several. Keep the internship feed open while you also watch adjacent categories, because working student roles often sit outside "Internships".
