FAQ
Do you guarantee a new job?
No. We improve your process and timing. Hiring outcomes depend on market conditions and your interview performance.
Is this legal advice?
No. We flag issues that often need a lawyer or immigration advisor, but we do not represent you before courts or Ausländerbehörde.
What is a real limitation of this course?
If you need German at C1 for your target roles and you are currently at A2, the Intensive will not close that gap. We will say so in the Signal Call and may recommend language work before a heavy search.
Can my employer sponsor the fee?
Yes. We issue invoices suitable for learning-and-development budgets when the engagement is developmental rather than a covert exit plan — we will discuss discretion with you first.
Course reviews
“Module six’s resignation sequence was the piece I kept returning to. The interview studio felt thinner if you already present often — still useful for German-specific questions.”
★★★★★
Constraint map in week one stopped a premature resignation. Worth the awkward honesty.
