How long does recruiting physiotherapists/occupational therapists from abroad take?
This is how your talents can start on the confirmed start date:
From selection through to professional recognition.
Our services.
With TalentOrange, you receive everything from a single source. We do not rely on agencies abroad to “supply” us with résumés. For us, every skilled professional we accept into our programme is a talent whom we support with appreciation and personal commitment.
We travel in person to the countries of origin and, through in-depth interviews, select the best skilled professionals for our program. The candidates must convince us both professionally and personally. Ultimately, we choose young people with a clear motivation to live in Germany long term. They want to develop professionally and personally and give their lives a new direction.
We fund a full-time intensive German course for our talents: six hours a day, five days a week. So they can fully focus on learning, we provide them with a scholarship. All teachers hold a university degree in “German as a Foreign Language”. We provide regular professional development for our teachers. We have also established close quality monitoring at our partner schools. We offer pronunciation training and, if needed, individual tutoring.
After you have issued the job offer, we either apply for the official assessment notice ("Defizitbescheid"); on that basis, we then take care of labour market approval and the visa. Alternatively, we take a shortcut and use the "Anerkennungspartnerschaft" instrument. This enables skilled professionals to enter Germany faster. They can already start onboarding while the notice is still being issued. We have had very positive experiences with this approach.
During the German course, we already begin intercultural preparation for our talents. Shortly before their arrival, we prepare the receiving teams in a workshop. If desired, we will find accommodation for your talents. We pick them up at the airport and take care of registration at the Bürgeramt, the SIM card, the bank account, and health insurance. In our online office hours, we clarify any open questions. Our alumni community also provides support. This makes the start easy.
All professionals hold at least a Bachelor’s degree in their field; some also have a Master’s degree or an additional specialization, for example in pediatric nursing. We have reviewed all qualifications to ensure that they are eligible for recognition in Germany. Immediately after receiving the hiring confirmation, we initiate the professional recognition process with the competent authority in your federal state. Of interest to healthcare employers: In Hesse, we offer knowledge test preparatory courses at our Nursing School and administer the exam.

Skilled professionals and apprentices from abroad for the healthcare and education sector
That’s why our talents speak German so well.
Since 2012, we have continuously improved our language training. With intensive support and scientifically monitored teaching methods, we ensure that all our talents pass the B2 exam. This way, your skilled professionals arrive on time.
Identify linguistic talents.
Using tests, we select skilled professionals with language aptitude - people who can learn German particularly quickly and successfully.
Focus on language.
Our talents receive a scholarship to focus exclusively on learning German for seven months, for up to eight hours a day.
Teach in person.
We teach in the classroom, not online, and in fixed groups. This ensures higher motivation than distance learning.
Offer tutoring.
Not everyone learns at the same speed. That’s completely normal. That’s why we provide individual tutoring and offer targeted exam preparation as well as repeat courses.

We recruit healthcare professionals, among others, from Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Namibia, Kenya, Morocco, Tunisia, India, Vietnam, China and Myanmar. For daycare centres (Kitas), after-school care (Hort) and youth services, primarily from Colombia, Brazil and Namibia. We continuously review additional countries – the prerequisite is that the qualification is eligible for recognition in Germany.
In an online meeting, we present you—as an employer—with suitable international skilled professionals. At this point, our talents’ language skills are at A2 or B1 level, so the conversation takes place in German. We support you throughout and, if needed, provide translation. If you wish, you can take part in one of our recruitment trips to a country of origin of our talents. There, you will have the opportunity to meet your new employees in person and get to know them in their own environment.
TalentOrange supports the entire recruitment and integration process. This includes selecting suitable candidates, organizing language courses, and providing guidance throughout the recognition and visa process. In addition, we prepare both the talents and the receiving teams interculturally, organize entry into Germany, and support the search for accommodation. After arrival, we help with appointments at public authorities, insurance matters, setting up a bank account and SIM card, and provide initial on-site orientation.
We guarantee an entry date. Depending on the country, the language courses take 7–11 months. If suitable candidates from ongoing courses are available, entry is sometimes possible after approx. 2 months. For targeted search profiles, the process usually takes up to one year.
All professionals complete the intensive German course at B2 level. Pronunciation training and conversation practice specifically prepare them for day-to-day working life.
International skilled professionals should not have to go into debt in order to work in Germany. All services are free of charge for them. In return, they commit to a minimum employment period of 24 months.
The costs depend on the scope, professional group, and number of skilled professionals. We will be happy to prepare an individual offer. Please contact us.
