Pro is open 🚀

A German application means a tailored CV and an Anschreiben for every ad, and working out what each ad actually wants.

Since 1 November, our Pro pass is open to people living in the EU.

Free shows what the ad asks. Pro answers it. 🧵

You can withdraw within 14 days of purchase and pay only for the days you used. After that, your pass runs to its end date and unused days aren't refunded. It never renews, so you are never charged again.

An ad written in German doesn't always ask for fluent German. Some name it as a plus. Some name no level.

https://t.co/BNIpiL1eZL ranks German-language ads too, for your German level.

Would you apply to a role whose ad is in German?

More than 5,000 of the nearly 23,000 live roles we list in Germany are advertised in English.

3 in 5 of those name Berlin or the Munich area. Outside those two, most ads are written in German. 🧵

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

Part of that is where we look: we also read employers' own career sites, and many Berlin and Munich employers post there in English.

On the public job boards alone, the order holds: Munich 12%, Berlin 8%, Dortmund/Ruhr under 1%.

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

More than 5,000 of the ~23,000 live roles we list in Germany are advertised in English. 3 in 5 of those name Berlin or the Munich area.

Outside those two, most ads are in German. Not all ask for fluent German, so read the German line first.

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

Berlin, Munich or Stuttgart? Before you pick a region to look for work in Germany, ask: is your field hiring there, what do those roles pay, and which tools do they ask for?

One job ad at a time, you can't see that. Our regional hubs add it up.

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

So we built https://t.co/BNIpiL1eZL.

Your CV is compared with 23,000+ live roles in 15 tech and industrial regions, on meaning, not just keywords, German titles included. One list, ranked for your German level.

First look, no account: https://t.co/QDqVyciQpZ

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

Job hunting in Germany starts with one question: where are the jobs?

You open a tab per city. Berlin. Munich. Hamburg. You translate "Projektleiter" as you go, and still miss the roles posted under German titles you'd never think to search.

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

1. Free account: upload your CV, tick "Save my CV"
2. Matches ranked on your competence and for your German level
3. Come back anytime: the best fits among roles added since your match, re-ranked each visit

You choose. You apply.

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

Same job, two titles:
Embedded Software Engineer
Embedded Software-Entwickler

Search only in English and you can miss the second. So you search twice.

Or upload your CV once: German-titled roles are in the running too, ranked for your German level.

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

Over half name German. Only about 1 in 17 of all 10,400 writes a level like B2 or C1. Most English-written ads don't ask for German beyond "a plus"; about one in five does, likely more.

Full report, every number and how we counted: https://t.co/wPQFsaTO3h

[Kandidate-ai @Kandidateai]

We read the 10,400 engineering and tech job ads in our index on 1 October.

"Grundkenntnisse" (basic German) appeared in six.

Ads calling German a plus ("von Vorteil", "a plus") appeared in nearly 500.
