Jul 12, 2022 at 20:32 comment added Jochen Glueck @user48953094: "we have enough [...] professors in Ger[many] which aimed for this career mostly because of public servant status." This seems very unlikely to me. One of the main advantages of working in public service in Germany - especially for "Beamte" - is the extremely high level of job security. But if one is mainly looking for high job security, a career in academia is probably one of the worst decisions one can make.

Jul 12, 2022 at 15:54 comment added user48953094 if you can choose between both types of professorships, I would rather think about what favors your life goals and personality, because we have enough teachers and professors in Ger which aimed for this career mostly because of public servant status. In future we cannot afford anymore such types of applicants and they will likely be much more out-selected. So the question among commitees will be is he the right person and not only qualified?

Jul 12, 2022 at 11:07 comment added lighthouse keeper Not a full answer, but more of a general hint: each of Germany's 16 federal states has its own local laws and regulations for higher education, and there are many commonalities but also differences between different states. In the case of FH professors, that might, for example, concern the required number of years in industry.
