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.

The compact Seminars, online and in presence, offered on this website, will give you all the information to make the self-learning Program “German in a nutshell” a part of your day. It may be the first step for being successful in finding you job in Germany.
Please register directly by email at info@career.uni-siegen.de. Within a few days, you will receive a conformation email with the room number so that you can take part in presence and a link to our GIN-Webex-Room so that you can take part online, just as you prefer.

Additionally, you are always welcome to join one of our seminars in German. Just take a nudge or simply overcome your shyness: attending a career service seminar in German language can be the beginning of a real motivation to learn German, because Germany is definitely the best place to learn German. Don’t hesitate to try.

Good to know: One of the services offered by our university to help you to get more familiar with the German language are the courses offered by the language Center.
