In Reply To: Thanks for the information. No, sadly I'm not EU. I'm Australian! :-) Und mein Deutsch ist nicht sehr gut!!! But that should be remedied within the next 6 months hopefully. I've found the going tough, but some very good sites are available. If only I was looking for a job in the UK...so far every site I've looked at has my perfect sort of job...IN THE UK!! Doh! I don't think I'm quite stellar...lol...but I'm not an idiot either. GPA of 6.125 out of 7. Fairly happy with that. Thanks for the replies.
Message: I was living in Munich for almost 25 years and give you the advice to contact the companies directly. Usually, they come back to you after 3 to 4 weeks if you are not a hotshot and either, they will ask you to wait for some more weeks or they invite you to an interview. Never use a recruiter since it is not common there. Companies are extremely reluctant to pay recruiter fees (20-30% of the annual salary). Why don't you try to google the link of the Australian Chamber of Commerce in Germany and try to get some more hints there?
