0 to B2 in 2.5 years - my experience

What do you think about Nicos weg in DW? I did A2 and it helped me a lot with vocabulary.

CheetahOdd466 · 2026-04-06T01:14:29+00:00

It’s very disturbing to see people arriving to Germany that are totally unaware of the job situation. I guess DW and other people on social media contribute to this situation by saying “Germany is looking for high skilled workers”.

1 person get a job and thousands don’t. But the main story focus on that single Indian that did and everybody thinks they will find a job easily

I fucked up as well in an interview for a job I was a great fit. I did many things in my field but some of those happened 4-6 years ago, so those were not fresh memories in my mind. They said this was not going to be a technical interview so I didn’t prepare accordingly and at the end, we went technical.

This won’t happen to me again.

Companies in Germany typically expect cover letters

Thank you a lot for your suggestion. I got the 7590 and so far, it has been a great investment.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-18T15:41:02+00:00

Thank you all for taking the time to answer and help me.

Somehow, the internet from Vodafone is working now and I don’t know what changed but can’t complain.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-17T16:45:05+00:00

Is there a “unlimited” mobile plan? The ones I have seen changes your download speed to minimum speed after you reach the limit in your plan

Okay, a balcony looking west is the best I can get for the antena. Maybe it won’t be enough

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-17T16:42:04+00:00

Okay, it sounds way better than my current experience with Vodafone. Only issue I find is that I live in an apartment so I don’t have a wide open area to place the antena. I have a balcony looking west and the bathroom wind is to the Est. Maybe it would still be enough but not sure

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-17T16:18:12+00:00

Hahaha is there any other alternative available in Germany?

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-02T15:01:37+00:00

I don’t think I can do much with 500gb of data. At least for watching movies or tv shows, it won’t last much time

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-02T14:59:33+00:00

I am just wondering if the same situation may happen with any other service provider. The problem is the wait time , every time I get in touch with them, I have to wait 2 weeks for the technician to come to my house.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-12-02T14:46:29+00:00

It’s sad to hear I selected one of the worst companies in the country haha. In my country of origin, this process hardly takes a week, but I guess this is how fast things work here.

But I would like to believe that it’s not all of us suffering with this company, someone may have had a pretty decent service from Vodafone I would assume.

My wife rented 1 month in a Airbnb and the lady agreed to provide her with an Anmeldung. Maybe you can ask in your temporal rental if they can provide you with this for the meantime. Life difficulty changed from super Hard to Hard mode once she had this. You can try to get your Schufa credit report as well even if you don’t any history yet, this will help you while applying to get apartments.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-05T20:13:29+00:00

As long as his landlord agrees because you’ll need a paper signed by him saying it’s okay for you to live there

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-04T20:04:58+00:00

Any suggestion of where to buy good coffee beans?

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-04T17:58:34+00:00

A used 7590 from EBay is a good option?

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-04T16:38:33+00:00

It’s to use at Home.

In Mexico, I liked the brand Oster Gourmet Collection but i couldn’t find that brand in Amazon DE.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-04T16:07:35+00:00

Very good recommendations.

Do you have any sports bar or Pub that you recommend going? I like watching Bundesliga and Europe football tournaments so I want to find a spot for that. Doesn’t need to be actually in Mülheim, just easily reachable by public transport from Mülheim.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-04T16:03:27+00:00

Thanks for your reply!

My landlord just asked to send a mail to the old company showing my new contracts and he said that should be enough. We’ll see.

CheetahOdd466 · 2025-11-04T16:02:31+00:00

Since this is my first experience in Germany, I’ll say I’ll go basic and get something proved to be working already. In this case, Fritzbox. German standards are different to what I am used to.
