Hello Yara!
I hsve 20 years of experience work in accountant and project management. I live in Germany from more than 15 months now with my son and my EU citizen, but not German husbant.
I'm struggling to find a job because I speak A2 level Dutch. I need a job asap. I spend all my savings waiting for the resident permission, which agains the low was given to me after 13 months.
Now I have a 5 years resident pension but I can't find work. Everyone I know is telling me that I have to know the right peoples to get me a job by recommendation.
I'm registered for a Dutchkurs wich strar at January but I don't have any money to pay my utilities. I can't apply for social benefits because I want to apply for Dutch citizenship after 4 years.
Can you help me please to find a job? It's ok for me even as a part time job in an assistant role. Just to get a job.
Best regards!
