EU citizens do not need a work permit in order to be employed in Germany. However, there are temporary regulations for the new EU countries.  
Students from all other countries must have the following additional annex in their passport: “Beschäftigung bis zu 120 Tagen oder 240 halben Tagen im Jahr sowie Ausübung studentischer Nebentätigkeiten und studienintegrierte Praktika nach § 2 BeschV erlaubt”. If you have this in your passport, you are allowed to work 120 days or 240 half days per year.

Please make sure that it is explicitly approved in your passport while applying for the residence permit.
