Common questions

Questions about recruitment.

We find candidates abroad for your open roles, screen profiles and coordinate documents and appointments. You hold the interviews and decide.

The competent body decides on recognition, the Federal Employment Agency on approval of the employment, and the German mission abroad on the visa. DastN does not make these decisions.

It depends on the occupation, recognition, language level and the authorities' appointments, so we do not quote a fixed time. In the first call we go through your case step by step.

Costs depend on the occupation, the route and the scope, and you know them before you sign anything. All items are listed on the costs page.

With the Vorabzustimmung, the Federal Employment Agency can approve the employment before the visa application, and the employer applies. More in our article on the Vorabzustimmung.
