Mittweida in Saxony needs skilled workers. Mayor Ralf Schreiber wants to make his town attractive again
Since 1990, Mittweida has lost around 5000 people. Many stores stand empty, and the lack of skilled workers is felt everywhere. Mayor Ralf Schreiber wants to revitalize his town and attract tourists and new residents. But many projects fail due to a lack of skilled workers. A development that is being seen in many small German towns in particular. A report by Bettina Stehkämper.

Skilled white German workers only, but there are none of them😂😂😂
sounds like they want the perfect person with all the qualifications to present themselves to the employer ready to go. no compromise, not a lot of apprentcieships/training that's their problem.
I wonder when the so-called Western World will stop their propaganda luring naive third-worlders into their soulless mode de vie.
🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 Nurses and Sailors are the best and preferred in the World💪💪💪….But as immigrants that's a setback already for them
Does someone know the hiring agency? I am a mechanical engineer from Ethiopia and want to apply for a job.
1 thing came to my mind. A.Merkel took ALL "called" refugees when now other EU countries are force take them and if not countries r threatened pay fine. Why nobody checked skills of this people…wait a minute– do they wanna work or just be on benefits 🤔 hmmm ..thats a problem! Send them for training and tell to work .If not stop benefits and deport.
When I was unemployed I had to go every 2 weeks and show that im looking for a job and where I applied. If not I was threatened to stop pay me unemployment benefit !!

Here is my exprience: I have 3 degrees including a DPhil from Oxford university. I came to Germany with fluent German to take up a position teaching at a university. All went fairly well at the start when I had a contracted salaried-position. For the last 3 years I have been working as a freelancer and applying to teach in schools (I have worked in a German vocational college), but my applications remain unanswered. Despite there being a so-called shortage of teachers. I go into some detail about all this in "Swallow the Toad: from Britain to Germany". I feel that Germany is a car crash in not-so-slow motion.
people are not "workers", they are people, better: needing people with skills in …, that includes medical doctors dentist law because those are skills too; hence, no one person can one upman ship another never!
Germany wants skilled workers to work for pittance and get on with the endless discrimination and racism.
Go Woke Socialist, Go Broke.
Germany also has one of the lowest home ownership rate in all of the EU.
Just have a little patience: in the next 30 years the Baby Boomers generation will have gone to heaven and there will no longer be a need for many workers.
P.s. I belong to the Baby Boomers generation 🤔😅 and the population pyramid can be found on Destatis…
Aber sie zahlen nicht vernünftig warum arbeiten man den gefährlichen Körper arbeiten
They invite (lure) skilled workforce from other countries and then force them learn German (and ways).
Looking for skilled workers from abroad when they came they tell them to go back to their countries 😂😂
What he did not mention is the culture of Grmany itself which is cold, direct and seems hostile to foreigners…The way Germans talk to foreigners and even each other feels very rude and mean to most other countries of the world…I work at an international school with people from 10 different countries and everyone say they are or were at one point almost in tears from the rudeness and unfriendlyness and condescending way they are treated
You talk of shortage yet you make it difficult for foreign workers to apply. why so?
THERE ARE people who wants to work, but they are picky to hire. They're own fault having a "shortage"
The problem is, you have to pay up. Low salaries mean worker shortages. Immigration is not the solution, it becomes a part of the problem.
I'm sorry, the person dreaming of becoming a truck driver, does not have a driving license???????????????????????????
People that think rising cost of living and low salaries are the problem, watch how the former rises further with the latter.
