Germany Job Relocation Studio
A flagship path for international hires who need the move to serve the job — not the other way around.
Informational pricing
€780 · Job Move Studio tier
Payment is arranged after a fit conversation. This page explains what you receive; it is not a checkout.
Best fit when your German employment contract is signed or in final negotiation and your start date sits between six and sixteen weeks out. Earlier than that, begin with an Arrival Brief.
Modules
Six studios, one calendar
02
Employer relocation language
Turn verbal promises into dated asks: temporary housing nights, shipping caps, and remote onboarding overlaps.
03
Housing filters that match your start
Separate month-one survival housing from long-term search criteria so you stop rejecting every listing for the wrong reasons.
04
Municipal first steps
Anmeldung sequencing, document folders, and what can wait until after your first week of work.
05
Money & insurance touchpoints
Banking openers, health insurance handoffs, and cash-flow gaps between deposit due dates and relocation stipends.
06
Week-two settling routines
Commute trials, grocery logistics, and a lightweight review of what still feels fragile after you badge in.

She is not an immigration attorney. Complex residence-title questions are referred outward.
Studio reviews
What recent cohorts said
“Module two’s email templates were blunt in a useful way. I still think module five over-explains insurance basics if you already have a German broker.”Omar H. · data analyst, Berlin
Finished with a calendar my partner could actually read. The limitation slide — no visa filing — was repeated often; appreciated that they did not pretend otherwise.Client in automotive engineering · Wolfsburg area
FAQ
Straight answers
Do you file work visas or residence titles?
No. That is a real limitation of this studio. We help you prepare questions and timelines, then point you to qualified counsel or your employer’s immigration partner when filing is required.
Can I join if my offer is not signed yet?
Yes, if negotiations are active. If you are only exploring Germany as an idea, wait — the studio assumes a concrete employer and city.
Is the €780 fee refundable?
Partial refunds follow the windows in our Refund Policy. Digital worksheets already unlocked are non-refundable after download.
Are sessions recorded?
Live check-ins are not recorded by default. You receive written summaries instead, which travel better across time zones.
