Week 36: Migration Trends, Wine Festivals and German Job Market
From autumn’s wine festivals to the challenges of finding your footing in the German job market—this week on Plus Forty Nine we explore new research on migration and integration, the rise of foreign apprentices, and the vibrant local tradition of Weinfeste that fills German towns with color and celebration every September. Our guest this week is Andreza, a career coach who helps students and newcomers write great CVs, prepare for interviews, and build essential networks. She also shares her personal story of moving from Brazil to Berlin and finding her path in a new country. Plus, in our “Ask a German” segment, we uncover the charming and longstanding tradition of the “Schultüte”—the colorful school cones German children receive on their first day of school, packed with sweets, school supplies, and surprises to sweeten the start of their academic journey.
