Online: How to find a job in Berlin?

After many months of a decreasing demand, the need for skilled immigration is growing again in Berlin. Companies, for example in Tech and IT or in the healthcare and hospitality sectors, are already complaining that they are finding it difficult to fill their vacancies. Thus, migrants from all kinds of backgrounds are often struggling to find jobs according to their qualification and skills set.

In this online-seminar we will cover some of the most recurring and important issues New-Berliners face when hunting for jobs and what you need to know about the German job application, including:

• Are your target jobs and industries well defined?
• Are your strengths and skills sets consistently communicated across cover letter, CV and social media profiles?
• Is the acknowledgement of your formal qualification in Germany already on its way and where to go for help?

Tobias Schmidtner will cover all these issues and many more. There will also be the opportunity to address your individual matters directly.
