Being a highly qualified professional alone is no guarantee of getting a job in Germany. With this job application training, you can better position yourself in the applicant selection process and get the job you are truly satisfied with. These online classes have already been used by most German universities to prepare foreign students for job searching in Germany. Even if you are currently not enrolled as a doctoral student / postdoc or student or your university does not offer a seminar from me at the moment, you can expand your professional qualification with this job seeker training. Take your chance for your next career step.

Target Group
The job-seeker training is primarily aimed at foreigners who have little knowledge of application rules in Germany. The examples in the seminars are optimized for engineers, natural scientists and economists. Nevertheless, the application principles I teach naturally apply to non-academic job seekers as well. Even if you want to work in an apprenticed profession, you will benefit greatly from the information given in the courses.
If your German language skills are better than English use the webinars in German language:
Course FAQs
What does a self-study course look like in practice?
Each seminar consists of videos in which I explain exactly what you need to know. The duration of each webinar is indicated individually in the detailed decription. You will also receive the presentation slides from the video for download and, depending on the seminar module, additional sample material or work handouts to help you with your personal implementation. All self-teaching modules (except the work permit) conclude with a learning test in which important information from the respective self-study unit is reviewed. If necessary, you can repeat the relevant video sequence using the time markers provided.
For details on the content of each seminar unit, click on the module title or icon above.
How soon can a self-study module be started?
Once you have paid, you will receive the link to your chosen module within a few minutes. After that you can start immediately.
How long can a self-study module be accessed?
After activation, you can access the webinar for one month. During this period, you can pause and repeat the videos as you wish. Please note: After your purchase you must activate the course within 48 h. The activation link is submittet via email a few minutes after your payment.
Are self-learning courses tax deductible?
The self-study webinars and individual consulations are tax deductible and part of the so called “Werbungskosten”. Please collect and keep all invoices and bills for your effords to find a job e.g. for flights, Visa, phone calls, relocation and this career advice as well. If you have finally found a job in Germany you should read more about tax declarations in Germany to get your investments back. You can also use the support of a tax assistance union (“Lohnsteuerhilfeverein”), which is much cheaper than a tax consultant.
