Dear [FIRST NAME GOES HERE] -
Today we're here to tell you about The Berlin Life's Facebook group, the information/support available there, and why you should be part of our community.
1) We just welcomed 27 new people to our Facebook group this week. Are you there yet? Join us to have discussions about moving to Berlin and finding work.
2) These are just some of the discussions that have taken place there recently:
- Benicio asked about co-working spaces in Berlin and wouldn't mind co-working with some other people in Mitte or Wedding
- æœ±æ™—è¯ wondered how soon to follow-up with a company after you've interviewed with them, especially when you reached the final round of hiring.
- Melanie started a chat on recommendation letters (Zeugnisse) and how to handle this topic in Germany.
3) A couple of job opportunities were shared:
- Aware is hiring a Head of Product​
- Gandharva Loka Berlin is offering a mini-job for a German speaking retail sales person​
4) There are some career events coming up in Berlin:
- Hiring event for Ukrainian refugees​
- ​Tech job fair​
5) Facebook is offering free courses and certifications (at a low cost). Learn social media marketing, iOS development, and more.
As you can see, there are always good discussions and related content posted it in our group. If you're not already in the group, why not join us? If you're in the group, why not introduce yourself and ask some questions.
Note, we pride ourself on the community we created. With more than 8,200 people, we want it to be a place where you can connect with others for support and also get relevant and helpful information. We work hard to keep it free from spam and to ensure everyone is friendly and welcoming. Other groups like ours actually ask for payment (!) - we promise to keep our group forever free as we don't believe in community support being monetized.
Another friendly reminder - next month, I'll be hosting an online event where you can ask me anything about working in Berlin. Get your questions answered by submitting them in advance. Just fill out our short form to ask me anything you want to know about what life in Berlin is like and get tips on finding work: https://forms.gle/4H4AmFQQvWzL9EUe6
As always, be sure to browse our website for more information.
💖 See you again soon,
Founder - The Berlin Life
