Built on what hiring, visas, and salaries actually look like.
We refuse to be a personality quiz. Every score maps to a measurable Germany labor-market signal. Here's what we've built it on.

Aligned with Bundesregierung Fachkräfteeinwanderungsgesetz + BAMF guidance + Goethe-Institut B-level requirements.
