    I am currently living in Germany, but I will relocate to London in 2 weeks. My native language is Romanian, I also speak Russian fluently (I learned practically at the same time with my native language).
    I also speak Italian, quite fluently, I lived in Italy for 5 months, and then I relocated to Germany, where I befriended an Italian, who became my best friend!
    I understand French, but I can't speak it fluently, although I learned it at Uni, sadlyI did not use it at all afterwards.
    I started once to learn Greek (a very interesting language, I must say, I loved the simplicity of it's grammar). At last but not least, my German is not as good as I wish it to be, I can hardly call myself an intermediate. My grammar is atrocious, but people understand me, so it was enough for my daily life.

    This is excellent advice! Thank you for making the video! I just want to add one small tip: If you're coming to the US, "recruitment agencies" are often called "employment agencies" so you might need to ask around about that. Depending on the region, people in the US might not understand the term "recruitment agency".
    Also, just because you asked, I'm fluent in English (my native language), Spanish, and sign language for the deaf. I'm also reasonably competent in German and I speak a small bit of French. I'm actually currently working to become fluent in German and after that I'll probably work in my French some more. I love languages, in case you can't tell! :-)

    I once applied for one of those call center jobs where I had to call people, I even went for a 4 day training. I couldn't do it. selling stuff to people who don't even know that they don't want the junk you are going to sell to them just felt wrong to me.

      @TheCladeL 5 лет назад +1

      Having worked as a CSR for a year, I can assure you that the difference between a sales and customer job is big. When your job is purely servicing customers, they call you and need your help, so they can't hang up on you or shout at you (although this happened from time to time as well - we're working with people after all).
      Also, some of the phone sales jobs have lists of people, who have already expressed interest in the product/service you are selling, whom you'll ne calling.
      Not that it was my favorite job ever, I'm just saying that you shouldn't demonize jobs done through phone and especially not mistake sales job with customer service :)

      @samernader6064 3 года назад

      Yea, these aren't really reliable jobs. I once applied and had the same experience as you. I didn't even finish the training because on the third day, we were given a random list of people to call and try and sell a discount card to. Most of them were unreceptive or were just rude and I understand why. Most people last around 2-3 months on those jobs if not less. I literally see the same company post job vacancies every 2 weeks haha.

    Been in Germany two months now, still looking for professional work as an engineer, thought I would've found something by now...
    Working at a bar atm, can be so disheartening as a very qualified professional.....
    Sometimes I think of moving back to Aus or to the UK, but I really want things to work out here.....

    I'm English and am considering applying for jobs abroad. because of the weather lol. the entry level jobs i'm applying for require a strong academic background (degree in STEM subject) plus prior coding experience in a low level language. and then under 'desirable' they list a load of random technologies specific to their work and occasionally a coding language i haven't even heard of 😂 like do they really expect someone who's entry level to know that? also i have came across an 'entry level' position earlier paying £70k and requiring 3-5 years' experience or something. I've come across quite a few jobs advertised as entry level requiring you to already be an experienced software developer (of many years)

      +Gagan Bhinder Only on the basis that you can speak Indian languages, I'd say no as there are already a lot of Indians in the UK. Even if there are some jobs requiring this skillset, there will be tons of other people that have it too, so you need other qualifications as well to stand out from the crowd.

      fucking lonelyness is killing me.
      I wanted to talk to someone that is all i wanted so that i can get this load off my head. Is that too much to ask for !
      I could talk to my friends yes but i don't want them to feel bad for me you know, i do not what them to be sad for me. So i though like, why not talk to some random person on youtube so that it might make me feel better and i don't have to feel any shame in it. By the way lass my real name is Prince.
      I'm a person who helps and motivates others and also a leader in every activities but i don't have noone to talk with.
      The funny thing is that the people who knows me won't even believe that i'm sad due to the positive energy i give them when i talk with them. They all think that i'm happy as heaven but i am not. Very hard to find someone who is sincere and loyal.
      Anyways noone will see my comment except for you and me and a few more people since this is public. But thanks for asking and have a great day lass and you stay safe out there 😊😊.
