Playing career
Schmid played for Austria Wien from 1989 to 2002 and LASK Linz from 2002 to 2003. [2]
Coaching career
Schmid was the assistant coach for the reserve team of Austria Wien in the 2007–08 season. [2] However, during the winter break, he took over as head coach of Schwanenstadt 08 and was there until the end of the season. [3] After his coaching stint at Schwanenstadt 08, he became assistant coach at Wiener Neustadt. [2] He left Wiener Neustadt to return to Austria Wien where he became assistant coach to the first team. [2] He became assistant coach of 1. FC Köln after the 2012–13 season. [4] He has had talks with Austria Wien about the vacant head coach's job. [4] However, Köln refused to release him. [5]
