    • @simplegermany
      @simplegermany  Рік тому +2

      You would need to check the visa regulations for the nationality. For family vacation it would usually be a tourist visa and for a significant other as well, unless you are married or engaged. You can use the visa navigator from the German government: www.auswaertiges-amt.de/en/visa-navigator/2315250

From March 2013 I started to work with a US based company in Bangladesh till date as a Plant Manager. My age is 40 and I started to learn German language. Will you pls inform us can I come to Germany for work? Pls advise.

    • @simplegermany

      It depends! Every job application can be different depending on what company you are applying for. The best way to make sure you are applying to legitimate job roles is to do this through professional platforms (i.e. LinkedIn, the company website, etc.) Another great way is to contact recruitment companies to help you find a job in your field. 🙂

    Cover letter is over in 2023 ...but since in Germany fax and letters are still in use , then cover letter is another bureaucracy that is required ! My son 16y is unable to understand why a letter is required!

    • @simplegermany

      It's not required for every job, but the more traditional the company, the more necessary it is.
