Please note:

Decisions on exact amount will be made by the employer!

Visa Options will be discussed upon our initial Interview via Skype or telephone.

The employer decides who will finance the B2 language course.

Project start and end are binding and will be conveyed to you in good time. There is no vacation during the 3-month language course.

1. For non-EU citizens, the responsible regional council checks the equivalency of the vocational qualification and requests, as a rule, participation in an extra-occupational assessment test before recognition of the qualification. Here costs can be incurred (about 1,400 €) which will possibly have to be refinanced.

2. During the three-month language course, meeting the online deadline for the German embassy in the country of origin to issue a visa in connection with admission to the German job market is essential. You must let us know promptly what this deadline is.

Please note: Processing time at the Federal Labor Office and the embassy can take up to 12 weeks.

We communicate via Skype, e-mail, through the recruiter and face-to-face if job interviews take place in your home country.
