GERMAN and JOB SEARCH

The documents supporting your application are complete and you would now like to prepare yourself for a job interview with a potential employer. Our training will help you with this process, boosting your confidence and ensuring you can respond to interview questions professionally. Incidentally, there are three words for interview in German: Interview, Vorstellungsgespräch and Bewerbungsgespräch. Before you book this course, it is important that you have completed all your application documents (cover letter and CV).  If that is not the case, please consider the Home Tuition Course ‘German and Job Applications’ or our private online training in job applications to help you prepare these documents.

4. 2 German + Interviews

In this one-to-one training you will learn how to give a confident performance during the job interview. In addition to the lessons with your German teacher in the mornings, you will work with an experienced interview coach in the afternoons. The aim of the training is to ensure you are well prepared for a future job interview, with plenty of opportunities to role play interviews based on your application documents and real job advertisements. While your German skills may not yet be perfect, you will learn how to use convincing language and how to reduce your fears. Please note that before every interview there are a few simple rules you should follow: Read More

Example: weekly timetable with full board

As a rule, you will arrive on Sunday afternoon and leave on Saturday morning. One week is usually sufficient for job interview training. If you wish to stay for a second week, you can book an additional course, e.g. German and Pronunciation, Business German or one of the German & LIFESTYLE courses, such as German & COOKING or German & GOLF.

The German + Interviews course consists of 20*45 minutes of 1-to-1 German lessons in the morning from 09:00-12:30 plus 8*45 minutes of interview training for 4 afternoons per week. In addition, there are practice sessions including meals with your teacher and social time at home, in a brewery or a beer garden. During the leisure activities you will also hear German around you at all times and will be speaking in very natural situations. Whether you like sightseeing, taking walks or going out to the cinema or to a concert, you will be speaking German aound the clock and will always have your teacher with you to act as your personal language advisor – that’s what makes the Home Tuition program such an experience!

While we offer you many opportunities to speak German, it is entirely up to you how many activities you do and how much time you have to yourself. We offer the activities and you select what you like!
