some of your favorite clothes (socks, underwear) that might be unavailable over there; personal mementos, otherwise it is just as modern as the U S so you can get or buy whatever you need. {Or have your parents send it from home (soaps, shampoos, as you need them).}

working as a freelancer should be possible. when writing an invoice you should provide following data: Your name + address the address of your customer / client the invoice date (when your Invoice will be sent) an invoice number (it has to be consecutively numbered: like 0601, 0602, 0603 or simply 0001, 0002) a short description of your work data like working hours or a list of your expenses or other fees. an invoice amount / the total your account number and bank code and one important feature if you want to go for sure or your customer asks for it: (an individual) TAX NUMBER If you won't earn more than around รข‚¬ 16,000 a year you don't need to take VAT / "Umsatzsteuer" (16%) Some customers want / need your TAX NUMBER on the invoice and some don't. Ask your customer first. Sounds complicated but you can always use the same structure. GOOD LUCK!

u have to write directly to the univ or company to arrange. your college in india should be doing this or the company in germany will not accept u. they need to have a formal request from your college.

You can't legally work on a student visa and no one will hire you or they get in trouble.

Contact the German Embassy in your country to find out. If you're not an EU national, getting a job will be quite difficult. And you WILL have to learn German.

You need to check with the German Embassy or consulate closest to you, regarding a Visa or you can only stay up to three months. You will need to find work...not an easy proposition in any country in this economic climate. You can thank our lovely almost ex -president and his cronies for this. Those greedy sobs created this mess! (thank gd for freedom of speech!) But it is always difficult to find work in a foreign country...unless you have some very marketable and extremely difficult to fill talent/skill. Like if you are a very good brain surgeon or something. Just knowing English and maybe German isn't going to be enough...tons of people in Germany with those two skills. If you can get a job with an American company in the area, they ought to help you get a visa to work. Good luck! It's a difficult thing to set up, but things that are worthwhile are rarely easy!

You will have to apply for the visa in person at the German Consulate which covers your state of residence. If you reside in Hawaii and need to apply in SF I guess the only way to get there is by booking a flight. http://www.germany.info/Vertretung/usa/en/04__Legal/01__Consulate__Finder/List/__Consular__Districts.html ..
