✓ IMPORTANT: You need a visa for Germany as well as a work permit (except if you are an EU citizen)! A work permit is easy to get if you are a university student during your summer holidays. If you are not a student, we can only offer you a freelance contract. Unfortunately, if you are not an EU citizen there is (nearly) no chance of getting a work visa as a freelancer. Therefore, we are only able to hire EU citizens or students! Additionally to the valid visa and work permit, you'll need an extended criminal record and a first aid certificate. Normally, it takes up to three months to arrange all the paperwork. We need all documents latest end of March 2024. -
