Here's what we bring to the table:

In addition to a €600 monthly allowance for your internship, working at G-STAR brings so many perks and exciting opportunities, we don’t know where to begin… How about:

• An awesome and diverse team that collaborates to inspire
• A work environment that offers room for fun, inspiration and innovation
• Flexibility to work from home up to 2 days per week, promoting a healthy work-life balance
• A clothing budget of €400 to buy the latest G-STAR items!

• If you don’t have an OV student travel card, we will cover your travel expenses.
• You will also enjoy two paid days of leave per month!

What will happen next:

• During this job application, we will ask you to play a couple of short neuroscientific games. These games provide you with the opportunity to showcase your potential, talents, and personality.
• As a result, we can ensure equal opportunities for everyone who applies, by evaluating everyone based on objective, scientifically proven insights rather than gut feeling.
• As we value personal growth and transparency, we will make sure you receive your results on the games as well.
• When we hopefully find what we are looking for, we will get in touch with you and if it’s a good fit, we’ll plan our first interview.
• When we’re ready to commit to each other, we’ll finalize the terms we’ve discussed and we’ll explain to you how to order your first pair of jeans from the G-STAR employee store.

Good luck!
