Great video, I'm native German and work in IT. And yes, there is a high demand and quite a few foreign workers in that area. While I agree that you have the most chances in IT with English skills only, I'd still strongly recommend to learn German, at least once you are here: While you'll probably get along with English within large companies internally, most of the customers and employees outside of the IT department will require you to speak German. If you only speak English, you are of less value to your employer which puts you into a bad position and smaller companies might not employ you at all. Also, if they have to speak English to you anyway and you are of little use in direct contact with German customers, they could just outsource your position to someone working remotely from India or another country for a fraction of the cost (and believe me: the employers do exactly that) Working permanently in medical care, as a doctor or nurse or child care is not thinkable without at least medium level German skills for 'everyday' conversation. Interaction with public institutions, insurances, trade unions will usually be strictly German. Remember, many people in Germany are old, esp. those working in those areas.. They'll lack the skills and some/most just don't wanna use English. While I'm used to English for at least half of my work time w/o thinking and it happens I don't speak any German for 2 or 3 days in succession, I know noone at my age (55) that is willing or even capable to do the same. So, be prepared to learn fluent German. Generally people won't make fun of you and be understanding while you improve, but it is expected you put *REAL* effort into this. It seems this is surprising to some foreigners, and AFAIK situation might be different in other European countries like the Netherlands or Belgium. But just imagine someone going to US or Japan and expect to talk to police, government, employers etc. in German... Also: Remember/Imagine virtually all movies here are dubbed in German since most people won't watch them otherwise. Just keep this in mind, but rest assured: As long as you don't come to just take unfair/unidirectional advantage of the social system, you are more than welcome! Hope to meet you at work soon.

My friend in Germany had open heart surgery to fix a hole in her heart that was there from birth, and all she paid out of pocket was 300 euros. If she had lived in the US, she would have paid 10% of the $150K surgery after she met her deductible of $5000. Insurance in the US sucks.

I am watching this exactly the night before the first day of my first job in Berlin as a software engineer. I came to Germany based on Jobseeker visa, got a job within 2 and half months, then wait for 2 months for work permit. Thanks for sharing all these great information. I didn't know about some of them.

I’m finally moving to Germany 🇩🇪, got a good paying job with excellent benefits, 8 weeks paid vacation, unheard of in the United States. It will be in the Frankfurt area. Ich hab den Vorstellungsgespräch am Dienstag und dann am nächsten Tag am Mittwoch haben die mir die Stelle angeboten!!!! 🤩 And yes because of you I subscribed to Nord VPN last year!!! Snd I love it!!

Just moving from Russia to Germany to work in IT. I used to work in fintech, and we (Russian IT community, I mean) built the best one, at least in whole of Europe. But Putin basically destroyed it over night with his decision to start a war, so here I am, looking to use my experience in a new country. Thank you for your videos, they are very informative and interesting

Ich bin erst letzte Woche nach Deutschland gezogen. Ich fange am 1. Mai an zu arbeiten. Ich fühle mich manchmal so verwirrt. Natürlich, alles wird gut. Die Unterschiede zwischen hier in Saarbrücken und Deutschland allgemeinen im Vergleich zu den USA können sehr groß sein. Ich freue mich natürlich darauf, die Kultur kennenzulernen!

Du warst in Guatapé! Boy, Das ist mein Land! ich bin dort geboren und habe die Hälfte meines Lebens dort verbracht, ich kannte diesen Kanal, weil ich bald in Deutschland leben werde und du hast mir sehr geholfen, mich zu motivieren, ich hoffe, mein Land hat dich gut behandelt und ich hoffe, wir teilen uns irgendwann ein Bier in Deutschland, wie klein ist die Welt! Vielen Dank für alle Informationen :D

I'm wanting to come to Germany. I'm a truck driver in the USA, so that would be what I would look for there. From what I've read there is a shortage in that field. I'm just waiting to be more financially stable before making the move.

Thanks for the follow-up vid! "Skilled Trades" is the right phrase for the handymen you mentioned.

I love the background natural sounds, bird chirping and all that. That sounds really relaxing.

I found this video really helpful. You're the best!

I always love the humor in your videos but I love the information in this one. I was using Gehalt to look for jobs but my German is not good and they're sending me so many jobs I didn't search for! My career is technical so I need to learn German but hopefully in a couple years I'll be there

Danke schön. Sehr nützlich Video.

Awesome man. Rhanks for all your great info. 🙏🙏

Great informatic video

I recently moved to Germany . I still have so many questions about the German way of life and managing the other things . Can i have a suggestion could you make a video about the recycling in Germany ? I know its not that hard but every countries have its own way to do it . I still know that is the right choice for me . I hope every other people could relate to and wish for the best for you and all of your subscribers. Oh and thanks for the funny and educating content of yours .

I am a big fan of yours....Thank you!

Take love from Hamburg. I am doing a full-time for 6 months now and these info are very important to me. You have compiled them in a easy to get and understandable way with your usual touch of humor. :)

Geat video with a lot of interesting information and it is amazing how much your quality and creativity is increased too, thanks

🥳 thanks for answering the questions! Also I didn't know you can come here for job trainings. That's amazing news, cause you don't need high qualifications for that!

Very informative and entertainment, vielen Dank 😊

Fantastic video, thanks for all the info. If I were a tad younger, I'd sure be moving to Germany in an Augenblick.

Man I love you I always dreamed about moving to Berlin one day but thought it will be impossible to get a job there (even though I have many many skills). Thank you man see you there

Glad to be back

Useful info 😉 it would be a dream to live in Berlin, my favourite city in the world ! P.s your IT jobs into your VPN promotion was seamless haha

I work for a German company and we are very shorthanded on technical professionals to operate high end sound and lighting equipment. We have open positions in 10+ countries.

Excellent and informative video, thanks :) Love your channel

Wow!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!!! I was thinking about planning to work in Deutschland but didn't know where to start! Your video is very helpful! Also, I didn't know that as an IT professionnal, I would have a lot of chances to have a job in Deutschland! I really appreciate your help!

What a cool guide! Thank you! Could you also, please, describe, how does the academic world works in Germany? Like, if I want to get a Phd, what should I expect during and after, moneywise also =)

Really helpful video ❤️ Love everything you make about Germany and crypto. I'm a Linguist/translator without experience and with comparable degree. Unfortunately I couldn't find any junior position in Deutschland so i started learning programming to increase my chances 😓

It would be amazing if you could talk about the changes with the new point system

Thank you for this information!

You rock. Thanks for all the excellent information.

How great this video of yours sir we been in Munich last July-August 2023 to visit our son and daughter in law working there, Germany is great country one thing I notice is the language barrier by the way I'm from Philippines

Legend

Thanks for advises

I like yr videos

Omg! I just visited Munich last month and fell in love with the city! I even wish I could get a job there. I'm a software developer with over 15 years of experience.

i lovd your videos

I’ve been contemplating about moving abroad. I’m a college educated trucker 😂. Life in the states has gotten crazy lately. I’d love to travel

Hi thats was so helpful video thanks. May i asking question about this thing. So, i got the job offer in Germany related to my field, and the details were written that the salary i'll get is not more than salary group 9a. Could you please tell me how much is it??

danke!

Happy Easter.

What about the construction field? I’m a Construction Estimator with extensive experience. I never hear of demand on such positions….

I think handy man jobs could be filled easily if the training time was a year shorter payed better and the requirements to get the chance tonget in where set a bit lessnover qualified. Its a huge problem

Hey great video, very indepth video on work life in Germany! Just wondering do you know by any chance if there is high demand in the business sector? Recently graduated with a bachelors undergraduate degree in business and looking to move over to Berlin to live in January (: also just wondering in berlin what is employer's attitude towards like unnatural hair colours in the work place like blue or purple hair? Just cause recently dyed my hair and in Ireland employers don't like it as much, thanks very much! (:

Could you do a video about ERA 13? What’s the maximum I can make at that level? Thanks

how do they do with disability access? I have terrible vision and need a big computer screen with big font. Are managers open to making arrangements?

Similar to Australia in many ways except we have some extra taxes to pay which funds old people.

My dad works in software and my mom used to be a teacher, I wish they wanted to move to Germany because I would certainly love to. (I’ll just conveniently forget to mention the lack of electricians, etc. as they love to renovate)

Thanks as german Student in Germany.. Noone explained my rights so clearly like u

I'm not sure if i should go to insomnia or kitkat this friday what would you recommend?

Have you talked about IT workers salary? I might missed it.

My heritage is mostly German with English, Irish, Scotch and Comanche. I've been there 5X and if I was to move there I would go back to doing what I used to do which in Broadcast Engineer in television. I've done computer and software installation and repair for fracking in the oil field. It all pays well but not very exciting if you done it for years.

Okay, now I have a question. I heard that Scholz might soften requirements for getting a Blue Card, namely education requirements for applicants. What do you know about that or where can I find out more? For context, I'm very personally invested. I've been working as an Android Developer since 2013 but I only have a year-long vocational training, and pretty questionable one to boot. And my actual uni degree is soviet-type 5-year Specialist in Applied Linguistics. Oh, and I'm in my late 30s. PS about the language part. If you're from outside EU and the mentioned list of countries (like yours truly), you need at least B1 certificate (official, like Goethe Institute) to get a residence permit, and in some cases to get the visa. And job listings state B2 or C1. So... yeah.

I have a question for you... I am a UX / Product Designer looking to relocate to Berlin, but I am realizing it is a lot harder than it seems. I have been actively applying to jobs there, but not already having a visa or residence in Germany makes me less competitive than EU-based candidates as they don't seem to want to deal with visa sponsorship unless you're particularly the right fit. In your video, you mentioned people from the US are able to just move to Germany and look for a job on location without a visa and apply for residency but I am not understanding how that works realistically. Seems impossible to find an apartment as a foreigner without a job or work permit (plus I have a cat - ugh) and I have heard there are issues with the Job Seekers visa. Hoping the Chancenkarte going to affect with help... but I guess my question is, does it make the most sense to get a job before you come to Germany or to move there first and find a job on location?

Awesome movie! Could you one day consider making such detailed movie about freelance in Germany? I know that it works for the list of professions, but it is not clear about health insurance and taxes, as sometimes you only work some minijobs etc. Or for example now my husband pays my health insurance, and what happens if I start working as freelancer , can I still have my insurance paid by my spouse? ... It is gets pretty complicated especially for foreigners that doesn't speak fluent German ;) all best, greeting from Leipzig

man you are very funny, great videos 😂

wow i thought he was talking about the french situation cus its the exact same but with lower wages

Yes, but trying to get German Visa it's like in the Battlefield of WWII. First question is Worum geht es ?

Hey have you guys watched Russian Doll Season 2. Episode 4 - is that Berghein?

Hallo bro guten tag, can you give me some tips on how to have a good conversation in my Germans colleage.because it's kind of awkward sometimes when working together with Germans and i am ver silent because i dont know how to start and think to have a good conversation when working. that's all Vielen Dank for your reply.

I would really like to move to Germany. I'm an HVAC technician. I'm not sure if my specific job is in demand. I work with a lot of Siemens, Schneider, and Johnson Controls products for a University. Lots of automation aspects of my job since the university is trying ro be as green as possible. Does anyone know if this specific job is in demand in Germany? I'd like to learn more engineering. I know quite a bit already.

Hi Radical living What about Operator work in germany I come from Netherlands and i just wondering if the salary are different then by us 😊

I've lived and worked for the city I was living in Germany in 2018, in which I had a work permit that is now expired. I've been wanting to go back to Germany by transferring with Amazon since I have the option to, but I don't know where to stay to be able to apply for a residence permit. I'm not sure sure how that works. If anyone has any insight, I would greatly appreciate it.

why do you reckon the pension system will stop / collapse? I do believe the same, however I would like to see your opinion - cheers

I've got 25 years of cybersecurity experience in the U.S. with the top cyber certifications in the world, any advice on where to start to land one of those 100k jobs that are available?

Instead of Stepstone and LinkedIn, I would recommend Xing. There are ton of recruiters who search for potential employees. The caveat is that you should at least have conversational German skills (B1 - B2)

This channel is funny. 😁

I know this video is 1yr old now but I’m from Australia. I have no offical trade/qualification is there any chance for me to move to Germany? And I’m 26yrs old.

Hi .. I studied business management for my master .. can you help me to figure out which city is better for me?

I am watching this vídeo i think travel on Germany Next year but i Need more information about jobs.

Even if you can work in Berlin only speaking english, I think its always better to even try learning the german language if you wanna stay. There are countries like France where you have to learn the language. And I think its a matter of respect to the culture you move in.

What is the demand like for HR professionals and Lawyers?
