3 years in Germany 🇩🇪 | REAL Experiences of an Indian in Germany

[@scpmdt]

The main thing people must remember is that you go to a new country firstly is for a better life. So never go with the mindset that the country has to adapt to you but that you have to adapt to that country. Respect for the country & its people is THE most important factor. I found the German people are extremely helpful & but it works both ways because you need to assimilate & be respectful.

[@Süssi1990]

Er ist ein gut ausgebildeter Mann. Einige Deutsche sehen nur „Ausländer, dunkelhäutig, wohlmöglich ein „Mensch anderer Religion“. So wird das nix. So kommt hier keiner (mit guter Bildung!) hin.

[@Kausnew]

He is a hindu by birth. And I am quite sure he won't be causing any trouble to any native german. Don't be a pseudo secular , every body know who don't assimilate and dont follow the rules In the European countries. Most of them are pakistani and middle eastern peacefuls because of which rest of the Hindus has to suffer .

[@narinderchander]

Also learn the language as much as possible before travel. With lessons on KZbin there's no excuse.

I’m German, moved to the US 20 years ago. I don’t know why I found your channel but I love how calmly and honestly you describe your experiences. I went to India once, and when I returned, I missed all the noise and chaos! The US and especially Germany seemed so quiet and boring in comparison :-) Wish you the best, keep making videos, super interesting.

[@bongingermany]

Thank you for the lovely comment 🙂

[@morbvsclz]

I am a native German and work for an international company based in the US. So fluent English is required for any higher positions. While on the clock, you'll be fine with English as long as you have a purely technical role. But when you want to sign up for a job that requires you to lead locals (incl. other migrants), then fluent German really becomes crucial. We've hired a lot of graduates from India and Pakistan recently, that did their degrees in Germany. But too many of them did not pass their probation period... Pretty easy: If you want to lead people, you need to feel comfortable interacting with them first.

[@bongingermany]

But you said you work in the US. Why would you need German there?

[@morbvsclz]

@@bongingermany Sorry, that wasn't clear in my original comment. I work in Germany, but the company is orginally from the US, but has locations around the globe. So much / most of our internal communication is in English. But many of the workers only speak German, and many are not fluent either. So communication can be challenging.

[@me-dt3do]

@@morbvsclzi have seen so many indian coming to germany to work here but they think they can get easier jobs or change their jobs to othere companies but what they forget is they also need to talk fluent german when the wont to change their company.

I have nothing against Germany but for me life as an immigrant in America is better than Germany! There are so many more opportunities to make money and there are so many more wealthy people that you can connect with.

[@ronnie9187]

Great to see you here Kaustav. You have done very well. It is not easy to find your way in a very different culture. Note that the cultural differences within Europe are very big. In Italy or Spain, for example, they don't mind being a few minutes late. Here in Switzerland, where I live, when I go to a client, I take plenty of time. For example, I am half an hour early, I have a cup of coffee somewhere near the client's office and I get there a few minutes before the official time. Being punctual in an easy way so to speak. In the Netherlands, where I also lived, the agenda is even more important and people, even privately, book appointments weeks in advance. That's something new, it wasn't like that a few decades ago. France, Spain, Italy and Greece are more convivial and the weather is also much better. But they generally don't speak English very well. Take care, and I hope you will have a good time in Germany. A tip for a very good translator is deepl.com, a German company. It also helps you read and write very good texts, it is much better than Google, which often misinterprets sentences. It will help you in Germany.

[@bongingermany]

Thank you for that lovely comment. I learned so much about the different places that you mentioned. And yes, in Germany punctuality and discipline is taken very seriously, which I was not quite familiar with, three years back. Back in India, the culture is more like that of Spain and Italy - as you mentioned. 🙂 I have started changing my ways now that I have been staying here for 3 years.

[@Misophist]

Welcome, Kaustav! I've been three times to India, twice for vacations, and a third time professionally to Chenai, and I was always carried away by the cultural differences. I had been around the world a lot before this, but landing the first time in Delhi immediately captured me. From your video, I take it that you are having a hard time gaining a foot in the language. As a young man, when trying to make me more familiar with English, I found a way, to make this more fun: usually, you learn better, if you have fun with it: Graphic novels & comic books. The trick is, that you usually don't need to have a translator handy, when reading them, because you can 95 % of the time guess the meaning of unknown words from the pictures and the context. When moving to Munich, availability of Indian food will be much less of an issue. There should be a number of Indian restaurants around, and even small, private grocery shops offering products from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. I hope, you aren't that much discouraged by the inpolite AfD-trolls, that already seem to have found your video, judging from some of the comments below. I've noticed, that they go after the language, but this is utter nonsense: There is a whole host of US and British expats like NALF, Type Ashton, etc. doing exactly the same.

[@bongingermany]

Thank you for such a lovely comment. I loved every bit of it. Your suggestion about language learning is quite interesting. Will definitely try 🙂

[@dfgclan]

Ich möchte kurz ein Wort zum Thema Sprache verlieren. Ich bin jetzt über 30 Jahre alt mittlerweile und habe die gesamte Zeit in Deutschland gelebt. Ich habe Abitur gemacht und Jura studiert (weshalb man meinen sollte ich könnte gut reden). Und auch nach 30 Jahren kann ich nicht behaupten, Deutsch perfekt zu sprechen. Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, wie es ist aus einem anderen Land ohne Vorkenntnis (auch in Sachen Schrift) zu kommen und zu versuchen die Sprache zu lernen. Großen Respekt an alle, die das durchziehen. Und niemand, der nicht noch ganz dicht ist, wird erwarten, dass die Sprache nach 3 Jahren gut beherrscht wird. Jedenfalls ein sehr authentisches und liebevolles Video, ich wünsche nur das Beste!

[@haggihug3162]

Naja. Also ich denke, da ist die Frage, was man unter GUT versteht. Ich habe schon Menschen getroffen, deren Muttersprache ist Arabisch und die sprechen nach 3 Jahren hervorragendes Deutsch. Natürlich wird man immer hören, das es nicht die Muttersprache ist, aber darum geht es auch gar nicht. Wer Level B2 spricht, spricht sehr gut deutsch. Das ist meine Meinung. Schon auf Level B1 würde ich sagen, das man gut deutsch kann.

[@MrThomassch]

German cars have breaks, so we rarely need to honk and force others to clear our way. 😉 For English proficiency of Germans, you have to consider that only 2 of 4 occupation zones had English speaking masters. People in the French and Russian zones had to learn those languages. Now all contracts have to be in the official language: German. How confidently can you rent an apartment, if you don't understand the contract? Depending on the area, you might easily find people speaking English (or even Hindi, Tamil..), but there is no guarantee. Do-it-yourself is very important in Germany too. In India even a middle class family has maids and servants. We Germans don't, because the minimum wage is high, we can't afford. As I have Desi relatives and know a lot of Indian students in Germany, your video/experiences was like a time travel for me. 🙏

Excellent presentation, Sir, and excellent English! Often, I find that English, spoken with a heavy Indian accent, can be quite difficult to understand. The difficulty typically arises not from differences in pronunciation, but rather from awkward stress patterns. Your accent, however, I find to be not only light, but pleasant! You say that you're not proud of your German language skills. I say: keep at it! I'm confident that, with practice, your Deutschkenntnisse will be as impressive as your mastery of English!

I may imagine, that for an Indian the german weather is regarded as "cold", but India has cold - very cold - regions as well, high in the mountains. As we say: There isn't any bad weather, but only inappropriate clothing. Change Your jacket to a wool coat, Your sneakers to leather boots, wear a bonnet or better a hat ... and if it's really cold, use long-sleeve underwear. And last not least: Wear natural materials as cotton, wool, leather ... or even linen. These modern plastic stuff is more or less useless.

[@bongingermany]

Thanks for your comment. Your suggestions are really good. Noted. India is a very big country and very diverse in terms of weather. We have all kinds of weather, it’s true. But in general, India is a tropical country, and most places are quite warm and hot throughout the year. Unlike Germany, which is cold in average

[@jensbaranek8322]

When frenchman Napoleon came to Germany, he said: In Germany, there is a half of the year winter. And the rest of the year, it rains. One may imagine, that Napoleon came in the time of the "small iceage", a cold climate period. Germany is central europe. It is cold and wet in autummn and winter, so find Your way to solve this.

The roofs are pointed or slanted, especially because it snows in winter... snow can be very heavy and dent the roof... and so it just slides down... imagine you have to go up there to shovel snow.

Before coming to Germany, it is important to take note of five important things. Firstly, you may face a language barrier that you'll need to overcome. Secondly, the taxes in Germany are high. Thirdly, racism can be an issue in some situations. Fourthly, it is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain admission to public universities. Lastly, if you want to apply for permanent residency in Germany, you need to have B1 level proficiency in the German language

But I take your suggestion positively. I will keep that mind.

@@uteritter4293 I don’t know why everyone is focused on “you will not get Indian food here”. I mean yes, everyone knows that.

[@darshantawte7435]

@@uteritter4293 Yeah , i am aware of merits, demerits to coming here. Personally what i have understood is no country is perfect (Even India) . Your priorities is what define your goals and destination. I have option of going to USA for MS , but seems illogical now as the hype is long gone and i don't want to get stuck in the shitty visa process and anxiety that comes after it. In Germany i can get quality education at par with USA with literally no cost, good work opportunities in my field (DS/AI/ML). And i am ready to adapt myself to the German culture, learn the language (atlest till B1 before i land and hopefully go till C1 and be conversational) , get accustomed to culinary surprises and basically try my best to deal with problems here. Atleast i want to get an experience about studying in another country , i obviously can return back if things don't work out.

[@whohan779]

Personal story: a few months back I took the tram (RNV 5) from Heidelberg to Edingen and got on a bus with a few Indian chaps. They were louder than most locals, but in a pleasant way. Getting off at the same stop, they asked me for directions towards attractions and were grateful that I made the effort to speak English with them. The strongest motive (besides intellectual or schedule inability) to refuse speaking English (or larger Romance languages) at a foreigner-facing agency seems to be xenophobia due to certain (mostly [Northern] African and Arabic) folks´ constant deliberate misbehavior. Sad to hear that you may have born the brunt of that; but learning the language to basic conversational level (especially if it's somewhat close to one you already know) should really be expected if the intention is staying for years.

New subscriber, also Asian. If you could make a video about job search and interviews that would be really nice. My questions are: 1. How did you land your new job? 2. In your experience, were the interviews in German or English? What do they usually ask during interviews? 3. Is there a German format for CVs? 4. I have a Master's in IT but from my home country, do they accept that as is or do I have to have it translated or something? I think that is all I'm curious about.

Hello Kaustav I'm an aspirant I want to work there as a Nurse I'm just waiting for my license and study B2 level. Thank you for sharing your life experience in Germany. Its a big help for us Germany aspirant worker. Keep it up! By the way If I may ask, you've been living in Germany for 3 years right? Did you file for PR already?

[@bongingermany]

Thanks. No I am not yet eligible for PR. For PR application you need to have social contributions for atleast 36 months, which is 3 years. I was a student until beginning of this year so I didn’t contribute during that time

Hello, thank you so much for the informative video. I am also planning for my master's in Germany this year and have one year of work experience in the web development field. I just wanted to ask which technologies in web dev is more popular in German IT companies . Could you please share the type of interview questions they ask?

[@bongingermany]

Right now the skills in demand are JavaScript and related frameworks like React, Vue , also responsive design frameworks like Material UI, TailwindCSS, and programming languages like Java, SpringBoot, Python, Node.js etc. Cloud knowledge is advantageous. I will try to make a video related to interview details

One of the counsellor told me that no ielts is required and German public university don’t have business analyst or marketing course and in private uni 2 year cost will be approx 30-35lacs is it true?

[@bongingermany]

IELTS is not required for some universities, where they will allow you with a certificate from your bachelors university or school stating that your complete studies were in English medium. But not all universities allow that. Marketing and Business courses should be there in public unis. Just search on DAAD website. For private universities, tuition fees depend on the courses. It can vary anywhere between 4000-7000 euros per semester. Which is roughly 3.5-6.5 lakhs per semester. This amount can be higher also in some courses. Plus you have to pay for blocked account along with this - so another 11 lakhs per year.

@@priyalkapoor8153 as I said, private courses are costly. Each course has different tuition fees and yes, they can be costly. Exact amount depends on course and university. Analysts and Marketing positions are there. But overall job market is quite competitive

My son will join OWL lemgo next month, can you suggest cheap and good airlines flight from Delhi to nearest airport of lemgo, and also the name of nearest airport of lemgo

[@bongingermany]

Hello Sir. I won’t be able to comment on the cheapest price that is available. But you can look for flights via Lufthansa, Qatar Airways, Air India, etc. and compare the prices. There are multiple airports from where students travel to Lemgo - Frankfurt, Hannover, Cologne. I personally suggest Frankfurt because the option of choosing flights will be more.

[@JagdishChand-v2p]

@@bongingermanyhi thanks for your prompt response. Can we get direct flight from Delhi to lemgo or nearest airport with extra luggage permission for students, which flight allow extra luggage for students

[@bongingermany]

@@JagdishChand-v2p As I said, I cannot confirm on the flight details. You have to do some research. But yes, students get discounts on baggages. Also, there is no direct flight to Lemgo. It is a small university town. You have to take a flight from Delhi to Frankfurt/Cologne/Hannover and from there continue by train to Lemgo

[@StrongKickMan]

Skyscanner is a site to find the cheapest connection. Many Germans use it. I hope it helps.

[@haggihug3162]

@@JagdishChand-v2p Hello, your son will arrive in Frankfurt I think. Its the biggest airport in Germany and the one with the connection to India. Although the next airports are Hannover, Münster-Osnabrück and Dortmund. Its about 307 km from Franfurt and your son can go by train to Lemgo which will take about 4.5 hours because it will go via Köln. But maybe you like to book a Flixbus, it will take longer but is cheaper. From Frankfurt to Bielefeld. And from Bielefeld to Lemgo he can take public transportation. Last possibillity is to drive with a private person who will split the cost of the journey, this is the cheapest method, but depends on if you will find someone who will drive where you need at the right time.
