Nursing staff are desperately needed. As a result of demographic developments, this staffing situation will become even more acute in the future. A variety of approaches and models are therefore required to attract and retain motivated and qualified specialists from abroad. Changes in laws and legal frameworks as well as further developments in care concepts mean that good advice, networking and local cooperation are necessary in order to increase the success factors of international recruitment.

An offer especially for partners of your international employees

If you not only want to attract international specialists, but also retain them in the long term, it is a good idea to consider the career prospects for the accompanying partner.
Our workshop offer is aimed at partners of international skilled workers who would like to develop and realize their own career prospects in the region. We provide information about the regional job market and explain the special features that need to be considered when applying for a job in Germany. The development of application strategies, exchange of experience, networking and advice make the offer an ideal starting point for a successful start in the TKR.
The first dual career workshop took place on March 15 at one of our shareholders, Vulcan Energie Ressourcen GmbH. Thorsten Hauck welcomed six academics and gave them an insight into the work of "Vulcan". We were able to recruit Meike von Platen-Holzapfel, an experienced dual career specialist, for this workshop. Meike von Platen-Holzapfel is HR Manager at BASF SE, career coach (ICF certified) and intercultural trainer. Responsible for the welcoming culture at BASF's headquarters for many years, she has played a key role in enabling numerous partners of international specialists and managers to successfully continue their own professional careers in Germany.
