Five Time-tested Tools When Looking for a Job
"What would you recommend for me?"
This is one of the most frequent questions our Career Services team gets, from Americans looking for employment with companies in Germany, or German-speaking or German-trained job seekers here in the U.S.
You - a German or Americans looking for employment or career guidance in our niche, for example in preparing a job interview with a particular company - are meticulous and well organized. But but that's not a surprise.
Why? Because most Americans in Germany who have built a career in this niche, or set out to do so, are well-trained, well-prepared, and highly specialized. The same holds true on all levels for skilled workers, managers and executives with German language or business background here in the U.S.
"Very helpful. I discovered more opportunities than I imagined."
