Information for foreign applicants
We warmly welcome applications from abroad. There is, naturally, a little more red tape that has to be completed. If you come from a non-EU country, or you if do not fall under some other relevant law, you will need to have a valid indefinite work permit for Germany. You will need to get your school leaving certificate officially recognised as being equivalent to the German ones required. You will also need to get a confirmation from your consulate that you will not be called up for military service.You will need to have any certificates and qualifications translated by a certified translator. Depending on where you are assigned, German could also be required as a working language. If you do not have a German university entrance level qualification (Abitur), you will have to submit a certificate proving your German is at the C1 level under the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
