Speak german necessary to find a job?

Hello Dilo,

there was already in the past the same topic:

Because the most companies and traders have (at least among others) German speaking customers they demand mostly at least C1-skills, sometimes B1 is also possible...depends on the area of responsibility. But I think there are also some few exceptions where it is sufficient to speak only English, primarily if you are either an (sought-after) expert in a particular area (f.e. science, IT, craftwork, special knowledges and skills,...) or maybe for unskilled auxiliary-works without customer contact (f.e. kitchen helper, cleaner,...). I´d suggest to look especially for companies dealing with french partners, that could be a good advantage for you.

You can ask at the "Chambre de commerce Franco-Autrichienne"
https://www.ccfa.at/

I´m sure they can provide you with a list of companies: branches from french-speaking countries in Vienna, or Austrian companies with branches or clients in french speaking countries. I´d try it if I were you.

Good luck!
