I recd. a job offer at a German company almost 3 weeks back. This was after going through a tough selection process of a test, few hours of on-the-site coding exercises and an interview. Then I submitted the required documents(work contract and form) to get my visa changed from dependant to WP at Auslaenderbehoerde.
I got a feedback from Arbeitsamt today. They have denied me the work permit right now saying this job role is very common(Software application developer) and anyone else can do this job. I told the ppl at Auslaenderbehoerde that the company went through a long and tough selection process where Germans and others also appeared. The job was well advertised and after the enitre process, they selected me..so i must be the best suited for the job. The lady there naturally said that it was Arbeitsamt's decision and not her's.
I have taken a contact no. at Arbeitsamt where my company can talk to them. What can be done in this case to solve the problem?
Arbeitsamt has told me to wait for 3 months after which i would have completed 1 year in germany and based on my husband's visa, i will also get a work permit to work anywhere in Germany. But that would mean I may lose this very good offer now. Has anyone dealt with this problem?? What is the best solution??? Please help..i am really upset.

Posting a new thread surely wont help!
