Life with PROMEDES

Live and learn with PROMEDES and discover new areas of life that before you have never even dreamed of. If you are an enthusiastic person with a lot of motivation willing to learn and work then this is your chance to finally fulfill your desire.
Germany currently provides more vacancies than what foreign European nurses or doctors could supply for.
European or non-European nurses or medical staff in general, nowadays have the possibility of getting their titles recognised quickly and without much paperwork , similarly it applies to living and working permissions for Germany.
The law has recently been loosened up in order to facilitate the recognition/homologation of titles,diplomas and the procurement of working permissions as well as living permissions.

Many university graduates with nursing diplomas trying to find employment in Spain get very frustrated due to the current economical situation in Spain. Generally Spanish nurses have the chance of short-term-employment in Spain, nevertheless these contracts are not what university graduates are looking for.

In Germany the employment contracts (especially for nurses) are generally permanent.

Employment Contracts in Germany

In general, working contracts can be written up freely between Employee and Employer. The employment contract can be a "word-agreement" but for legal reasons and simply a matter of proof it is always advisable to write the contract up and sign it. If a contract has not been written up,the employer then has a maximum of 1 Month (31 days) to write up the agreements after the employee started.

The language of the contract can be independently chosen,nevertheless it has to be translated into german if court cases etc. should occur, in order to avoid misunderstandings.

The Contract includes following elements:


- Start and (possibly) termination date

- Location of employment

- Short description of the tasks during the  employment period

- Agreed shifts/working hours

- Duration of annual private holidays

- Periods of notice

- Collective Bargaining agreements in force,etc.

- A termination date always MUST be written on  the contract, if not,the contract is automatically permanent



Borderlines to the freedom of the Contract


The individual drawing up of a working contract is restricted by the following :

- several legal regulations (minimum wage,maximum   hours, etc.)

- Collective Bargaining agreement rights aplly  imperatively to Employer and Employee

- Regulations within the enterprise apply compellingly for employee



Probation Period

The period of duration can take up to 6 months. During the time of probation the period of notice is 2 weeks unlees other agreements were made on paper.



Working Period


The working hours must not exceed 8 hours/day and 48 hours per week. Extention of working hours is possible up to 10 hours a day,if within 6 months after the "longer day" the company compensates the extra hours by either payment or holiday. Current working contracts in germany ususally include a weekly amount of hours from 35-40 hours.
After 6 hours of work, the company must grant a 30 min. brake, after 9 hours a 45 min. brake.
A single brake has to be at least 15 minutes long .
The daily rest period counts 11 hours.


Private Holidays


The law states an annual amount of 4 weeks paid holiday. (only sheduled work days off,are counted as holidays => 5 days a week,weekends do not count as holidays)


Reasons for employment termination

An employee can, in a businees of at least 10 employees, within 3 weeks after receiving the terminatiuon letter, initiate a court case against his employer for sozial adversity infront of the labour court. Reasons for employment termination can be of personal provenance or can have its origin in working performance of the employee.

Hello,

You can contact us then, if you want to get a mediation ( only for nurses guaranteed) service. For doctors, we normally always find a job, for different professionals we try to find a job as well, but we cannot guarantee.
The following plan shows you what to do to go to Germany for work.
1. You send the mediation contract to us, signed, by fax, Post or email.
2. You decide, at which date you want to do the German language course.
3. You legalize your documents at a notary, so that PROMEDES can do, if necessary, the legalization in Germany to get a German diploma.
4. You attend the German language course for 8 – 12 weeks and pass the official language exam.
5. PROMEDES is looking for a flat in Germany, for a health insurance, Tax-Nr. and registration in Germany, as well as a job in Germany, and offers this to you. After you decided, which job you want to take, PROMEDES accompanies you to Germany.

How to write a CV without work-experience

Many job seeking people today have the same problem, "how do i write a CV eventhough i hardly have qualifications or experience?".
When writing an application always take your time and do not hesitate to be enthusiastic or show  artistic skills.
Employers need proof that you are the right candidate.If for example you have not yet gathered enough experience in the same or similar job area, possibly mention Practica , voluntary work or field projects etc. that you have completed in the past, to get the positive attention on your side.
Furthermore try to show personal skills that may be of relevance to your potential employer,such as hobbies, motivations or personal preferences, this way you can show the enterprise that you are a motivated person with the right attitude towards work and your environment and you managed to proof it in the past.
Nevertheless,sometimes(very rarely) these informations are not sufficient and you have to give solid examples to proof liability.
Maybe you have a blog and you regularly post,possibly you did voluntary work in a foreign country or you supervised a project   -if this is relevant for your job,or the enterprise,you should mention it.

Working in a family business or the independent(yourself) funding of your university courses or other trainings are examples of information that might be hugely interesting to your potential employer,as it points out characteristics such as work-ethics,manners or modesty.
Additionally it is important to display personal qualities and social skills at its best.If you are hard working and stress resistant,you should mention it by saying that you have a horse you are responsible for or that you have been doing a certain sport for years, basically presistant activities or responsibilities.

Also the layout of your CV can be of importance depending on the vacancy you are applying for.


Good Luck

Hospitals in Germany are even supporting and encouraging young doctors to learn languages and even subsidize language courses.
Additionally it is very financially profitable for young or older doctors to go to Germany .
Nevertheless it is very important for doctors of any area to get their internationally recognized language level of german(B2).
