I would love to, I even learned German (it was B1 at best, now it’s worse), but I don’t know if my field exists in Germany? I do habitat restoration and have skills with botany, ArcGIS, basic coding.
Seemed like y’all needed like, nurses and plumbers more than botanists 😔
Plenty of nature restoration and such. EU regulations make a lot of it obligated and subsidised. Labour shortage is general, also in your field, not enough staff in many fields (except maybe “influencer”). Specifically good GIS skills are highly valued in many government agencies, tho those offices are probably a lot harder to get into without being very fluent in german. So harder I guess than engineer or IT, but might not be impossible.
That’s good to know! My biggest barrier to moving to Germany would probably just be the finances, I’m pretty good at picking up language and could study, but iirc, you need like $10-20k? USD to have in a frozen bank account.
Why is there such a labor shortage? Aren’t there a fair number of migrants, and free/v inexpensive college education in Germany?
