EMPLOYMENT :

1993-1994 Deutsche Bundesbahn, Hauptbahnhof,
München, Germany, Information Assistant - I was helping other employees
to efficiently retrieve information from the train schedule information
centre in Frankfurt and supervised their work.
1992-1993 Office-Park München-Freiman GmbH &
Co, Assistant Manager of a Culture Centre
I helped to found and then ran a cultural center. I devised and translated
working contracts, organized the immigration of contracted foreign artists
and their families, supervised and assisted them in all their needs
and provided for their departure.
I was in charge of organization of events, hiring of domestic temporary
employees, acquisition of equipment and was responsible for all facilities
of the company.
1985 - 1991 While studying at the Ludwig-Maximillians-Universität I financed my studies with temporary work. In a period of six years I was employed by more than twenty companies: (2) law-firms, a notary, (2) trade companies, (3) real estate agencies, (2) translation firms, a pharmacological company, BMW, (2) air conditioning maintenance services, retailers, several transportation and taxi firms, etc. Most of the vocations were unqualified "summer jobs". Some of the work like translations, interpretation and legal consultation required special skills. Although I have often been offered permanent positions and satisfactory salaries, until 1992 I always moved on in order to finish my studies as well as to try out new jobs.
