Two focus areas for your start

Applying in Germany

Show your experience so that it counts

We translate your career into the language of German employers: CV, cover letter, references and the question of how your qualification is recognised here.

German for work

With a coach who teaches German

Heike has been teaching German as a foreign language to adults since 2018. With her you practise your job interview in German, find the words for your profession and get honest feedback on how you come across.

Your contact: Heike Brandt

The coaching is not a German course. Language courses are provided by the BAMF integration courses and job-related language courses. We help you find the right course.

Good to know

Recognition +24,5

Getting your qualification recognised pays off

In a German study, immigrants with a fully recognised qualification were 24.5 percentage points more likely to be employed three years later and earned 19.8 percent more per hour than comparable people who had not applied. This also applied in occupations where recognition is not mandatory.

Below their level 22,5 %

Many work below their skills

In 2012, a good one in five foreign professionals with a vocational qualification in Germany worked in a job below their qualification level.

For you: It pays to translate your experience so that employers can place it. That is exactly what we work on.
