How do I get a Hiwi-Job?
You can get a Hiwi-Job by asking at the institutes, your fellow students (for example those who already have one) or by job postings. You can find the latter at the bill-boards of the institutes or on Stud.IP.
Usually an informal and rather short cover letter is expected, supplemented with the usual information like CV and certificates. Afterwards, there will be a more or less formal introduction meeting. It can be helpful to already get in touch before applying.
