study permit to work permit info request

Toggle
Hi,

Im interested in coming to Germany to do a master degree in international business - marketing.

I will be attending a Fachhochschule instead of a University. Are graduates of these type of institutions also exempt from the "priority principle" when applying for regular work permits? or should the employer prove that there is no German/EU person qualified to do the same job?

Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer my questions.

For getting regular work permit, It does not matter you are graduated from University or Fachhochschule.

Everyone needs to go to Arbeitsmarkt-Check, which means they prove that there is no German/EU person qualified to do the same job.

There is no "priority principle" in Germany.

After getting your degree you are getting a year to stay in Germany and look for a job. If you find a job in the area of your studies you are exempt from proof that there's no German equally qualified and can start working right away, but that's only after getting your degree/diploma.

hey, thanks a lot for both your replies. didnt expect to get one so soon.

the reason i asked about "priority principle" was because it was mentioned on a webpage of "germany.info" i too have never heard of that before in any other context.
