    EPISODE 121: Missed opportunity or an opportunity not to be missed? Germany’s new visa or "Chancenkarte" and how to make the most of it. Common Ground Berlin


Germany’s new Chancenkarte, or Opportunity Card, is supposed to make it easier for skilled foreign workers to find a foothold in the German job market. But how does it work and are there pitfalls? Host Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson talks to employment-related immigration lawyer Csilla Rostas; Yvonne Koppen, co-creator of Simple Germany, which helps clients navigate Germany’s complex bureaucracy, and Chancenkarte applicant Ben Currey. 

Produced by Eden Brockman and Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson.
