Bro having cold feet is normal, a lot of people are so surprised because they are still in Nigeria and would jump to this opportunity with speed.

If you are moving to Berlin, i can tell you that you would love it like mad. It has the Lagos effect in a positive way, It is not a dull city and transportation is the most effective & cheapest I have seen. Most people speak English and you wouldn't even need to learn more than the basic German at all in that city, if at all.

For health Insurance, use Axamansard health insurance plans on their website, pay for 3 months and print out your confirmation in colored. That's all you need.

I just got my Visa to go to Germany. I am having cold feet making this journey. I have already told my boss I am leaving my current position.

I am yet to tell HR because of this cold feet. I have been in Qatar for 2years now and I think its best I move since I cannot marry and bring wify here.

The German company is paying for my flight and accommodation for 2 weeks but I am still having cold feet. The process is cumbersome.. I just realised I need health insurance to make this move. Where can i get such in Nigeria.

Travel Health Insurance is only about £10 for a month, you can purchase it online, the UK Post Office also sells it online and it. Covers Europe

Most employers here in Germany will insist on a public insurance (except the person is an extremely high earner), and it is the best to take. It is about 15.5% of one's salary and is deducted at source before your paycheck reaches you.

Actually, its 2k Euros per month remotely. its 4,600 Euro before tax. Also, I have worked with them for 6months... Its a blue card I am getting. I cannot be trapped bro.

I sure die about that one


If it's 4600 before tax, then you get like around 2600 after tax... And within one year of working in Germany...

Company will be willing to offer you higher salary to leave sef!

There's nothing to have cold feet about, Germans are very nice people and one of the best place to get real professional experience, they will assist you to achieve your goals, majority understand and speak some good level of English language, so you may not have great barrier before you get to speak the local language. Make the move!

Really, your company is paying for your flight and accommodation but could not pay for your health insurance. You guys should stop posting all this tells by moonlight rubbish because some people here are European and American citizens for decades already. What makes you think we are all dumb? Do you speak German in the first place? You must be a nuclear scientist for Germans to give you visa to come work for them.

I got the job via www.djinni.co.

There are lots of remote job opportunities there for people in IT.

Also its incoming travel insurance. That is what the embassy called it

Glocal1:
Congratulations!!!
Please share the process involved in applying and securing the job?

It's normal to have such feeling when one is about to leave a comfort zone for an uncharted terrain.
Do not hesitate to move.
You can ask your employer about the health insurance.

Even on monthly basis? Can't be that bad

Let me try to summarise.

1) House rent should be between €600 - 800 depending on city.
2) water and electricity bill maybe €50 depending.
3) feeding and water and groceries €300
4) internet €30
5)Tax €300
6) Health insurance €120

With some other expenses I did not mention. If you have a family with two kids, double the figures above. I am not saying like its not a cool salary. What am saying is that, its not a big salary in Germany.

However, germans are not friendly and very cold but they love our music. Try and make friends with irish people. They are very nice. Also, learn the language. Prepare for the rude sales girl as well.
