A short introduction to the self-study program German in a nutshell
Joining an English speaking study program at a German university may make you believe that it will also be possible to find a job in Germany without a working knowledge of German.
Our experience at the Career Service is different: The lack of reliable German language skills reduces the number of positions available for job-seeking students on the German labor Market. Since German is the everyday language in Germany, a good knowledge of German is essential for you to be successful in your job, even if the working language is English.
This is why the Career Service developed “German in a Nutshell” to make it easier to organize your personal everyday language training. This online seminar gives you all the information to make the self-learning Program “German in a nutshell” a part of your day and the first step for being successful in finding you job in Germany.
