Hanover is urgently looking for new talents: 750 jobs are waiting for you!

Hannover, Deutschland - Hannover faces a challenge: the city administration is fighting against the acute shortage of skilled workers. In order to win new talents, the city has started a comprehensive image campaign that runs under the slogan "Design your city". Mayor Belit Onay (Greens) emphasizes that it is not just about improving the city, but also promoting the career opportunities of employees. The administration urgently needs support, since 750 jobs are currently vacant, which corresponds to 6.57 percent of the total. There are acute personnel requirements, especially in areas such as the immigration office and social services, such as haz.de reported.

The city modernized its personnel recruitment and reduced hurdles for career changers. Application procedures now only take a maximum of 48 days from the first conversation to the employment contract. People without special administrative training are now welcome, which increases the chances of gaining talented specialists. The career center under the direction of Franziska Siebert is responsible for this, who himself worked as a registrar. A positive example is Elham Mohammadian, who found her way from bookkeeping in Iran to training as a specialist for pool companies in Hanover. This ensures that the administration will continue to be well positioned in the future, reports
