We urgently need skilled labour for the German economy! Who hasn't
heard this lament from employers and politicians? The German
population continues to age and around two million jobs are
currently unfilled. According to the Association of German Chambers
of Industry and Commerce (DIHK), almost 100 billion euros in added
value is being lost. On the other hand, the proportion of
international students in the overall number of students is
steadily rising and more and more international graduates are
trying to gain a foothold in the German labour market. Time to have
a chat with two from the target group: our international alumni
Meghal Shah and Eric Simo! They talk about their experiences with
the job search (also beyond well-known job boards) and smart
networking, German application processes, and visa issues. They
both strongly recommend mastering the German language and tolerance
of frustration. But they are also encouraging role models: starting
a career in Germany is absolutely feasible!
