Companies in Germany are desperately looking for skilled, talented, and qualified professionals. There are so many jobs vacancies in Germany going unfulfilled as the country is facing labor shortages, and therefore, seeking overseas candidates to grab those jobs in Germany that are particularly high in demand. According to a report published in February 2019 by Bertelsmann Stiftung, Germany is extensively relying on immigration to address workforce shortage needs. By 2060, Germany is expected to raise its annual immigration requirements of at least 260,000 newcomers. Also, on an average around 114,000 immigrants are expected to migrate to Germany from non-EU member states. This concludes that nearly 1,46,000 immigrants from non-EU countries are expected to arrive in Germany and join the country’s dynamic labor force.

In fact, in December 2018 the government of Germany introduced laws in favor of Skilled Migration to open pathways for talented and skilled overseas professionals to live and work in Germany. However, the law is yet to be passed by the Bundestag, which is expected in early 2020.

Having said that, qualified job seekers from abroad have good chances of landing a great career opportunity in Germany.
