POEA accepting applications for nurses in Germany
The central and regional offices of the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration will be accepting applications until February 28

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) is accepting applications from nurses who want to work in Germany.  

The recruitment is being done under the Triple Win Project, POEA’s joint initiative with the German Federal Employment Agency, which will place nursing professionals to different parts of Germany.  

The POEA’s central and regional offices will be accepting the applications until February 28.  

Applicants should meet the following criteria: 

  • Filipino citizen
  • Permanent resident of the Philippines
  • Holds Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree
  • Has an active Philippine nursing license
  • With at least two years related professional experience (bedside) in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, or care institutions

Those who qualify will be interviewed by employers In March. 

Upon hiring, applicants should be either proficient in the German language or willing to undergo German language training in the Philippines in April and May. Employers will shoulder the language lessons fees. 

Employers will also pay for the visa application costs and airfare from the Philippines to Germany. They will also assist the employees in finding accommodations, but the nurses will shoulder board and lodging expenses either in full or in part. 

The starting salary will be €1,900 (about P113,000) gross a month, which will increase to €2,300 (about P137,000) once the employee gets recognition as qualified nurse.

Applicants should register online at www.eservices.poea.gov.ph, then personally submit the following documents, fastened in a folder, labeled “German Federal Employment Agency RSF No. 180028”:
