  • Greetings out there I am glad you are.
    I just thought I could a series just help someone out there or share some information to those who may find it useful.
    As we mentioned before in this video • FINDING A JOB IN GERMA... Germany right now is looking for people, there is a demand of workers need and this is why I got inspired to do this video.
    One can come here through voluntary work or with au pair work.

    Some people have joy in their hearts to help others and that gives me joy to know there are people like this around us. If you think you are to able to do social service for people who are in need of care and help then this video is for you. For example one can people people who are disabled , young children, school, day care , hospitals, zoo, the elderly , mental ill and so forth, and also a tip
    if you work in the kitchen its ok but you don’t learn the language so much because you are not learning.
    You can come to this beautiful country as a volunteer and many openings with different organisations.
    FSJ Freiwilliges soziales jahr meaning The voluntary social year
    I think if you have no economic ties in your homeland or have a child or not married its such a good way to come to Germany for a year and do volunteer work.
    Age requirements for FSJ is 26. There are many facilities in Germany that can one can apply BUT PLEASE hope you get volunteering with accommodation because such they don’t really pay much honestly so do save us some extra money in your bank account but what I like that in Germany Medical aid is an obligation furthermore you are covered with many things.
    voluntary service mostly period is 12 months. One can a shorten the service to six months or extend it to 18 months depends on you. As a volunteer you have a holiday entitlement of at least 24 days within a 12-month service period.
    BFD Volunteers the age requirement is older than 27 have to work for at least 21 hours a week.
    Federal Voluntary Service in English
    There are training days more like 25 days within a year, medical examinations to every volunteer coming into the country which I think is a good things just for control.
    You will receive a testimony for the recognition of practice periods for a study or an training as well as VOLUNTEER and this does open new unimaginative door
    a qualified testimony in the end of your Voluntary Service
    Please be precise where you would love to go or to be placed
    There are many social service agencies in Germany
    REQUIREMENTS
    *Young people from 16 to 26 years
    *Any nationality so yes foreigners can do this type of service
    *MUST at least have basic GERMAN knowledge A1 or A2
    *Gender , race or religion does not play a huge role
    BFD
    Bundesfreiwilligesjahr
    Age requirement people who are over 27 until 99 I think lol
    What is an au pair
    a young foreign person, typically a woman, who helps with housework or childcare in exchange for food, a room, and some pocket money.
    Host family
    Aaah I have met tons of au pairs in my Language course and also through mutual friends quite its really an life learning journey. Try it out guys why not
    Be precise and more detail on your profile because yes you might get rejected.
    There are tons of agencies out there even in America and also in other European countries
    ATLEAST 18 to 27
    Once you Match with the family they will
    Do zoom and Skype call
    Location
    Host families differ but hoping you all get great families.
    Agency Interview Application proces
    Police clearance
    The family get to choose you , you don’t get to chose the family unfortunately
    You can decline or accept any family if something doesn't sit right with you
    Non-EU citizens
    You are between 18 and 26 years old.
    You have basic knowledge of the German language (at least level A1).
    You are not married and have no children.
    You can afford the trip to Germany.
    You would like to work as an au pair in Germany for a minimum of 6 months and a maximum of 12 months.
    You have not yet been an au pair in Germany

    I felt bad when I got to hear of aupair when I was 28 since I was past their required age. I love Germany and I have always felt like I belong there. I am currently saving up to start German classes in January since I have always wanted to know German language just for myself. I am 30 now and am glad to hear of BFD as an opportunity for me. This is my ray of hope. Thank you for the information.

    I will have a2 certificate by March. In these 3 months of April-June I will do B1 course and also make 2 applications daily for fsj with A2 certificate. In that case, I can make about 180-200 applications in 3 months. Then I will prepare for visa processing and B1 exam from July-August/September. As my target is September/October 2025. However after moving to Germany I intend to give B1 exam and complete B2 along with fsj. Actually after passing b1 before then if i apply for fsj then i have to wait for March/April 2026. What is the probability of success in my plan? What is your opinion?
