Consulting FAQs
Can questions from different topics be mixed in one consultation meeting?
You can mix different topics in one meeting. You book a certain consultation volume which you can use as you like for all questions about your job search and being an employee in Germany.
How long can a booked consultation scope be used?
You can use booked consultation units over a period of six months.
How can I deduct a personal consultation from my taxes?
Individual constulations and self-study courses 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 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.
To get an overview of the most commmon costs, I recommend these two articles. They are in German but you can use the translation function of your browser.
How or where do the one-on-one meetings take place?
The consultations are conducted online with webcam and screen sharing, so we can interact as if we were in the same room. You will receive a link to the conference room via email shortly before the appointment.
