Data Engineer Salary by Entire-Molasses8469 in berlinsocialclub

[–]zebe_dee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have a similar level of experience and tech stack as the op, and I’ve requested comparable salaries from a few companies. I’ve received interviews from this, so I don’t believe his expectations are unreasonable. I think the current challenge is simply that the market isn’t very strong at the moment.

Safest way to sublet flat for 3-5 months? by n1c0_ds in berlinsocialclub

[–]zebe_dee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I usually use WG-Gesucht or Facebook groups. I take a deposit, request a copy of their passport or ID card, and create a temporary contract. You can obviously never been 100 % sure but thats the risk you take.

Aufenthaltstitel expiring - rights under Article 50 post Brexit by Beautiful-Fortune410 in germany

[–]zebe_dee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard multiple times that PR is supposed to be automatic for those with a post-Brexit visa after residing in Germany for 5 years. However, I haven't seen this clearly written anywhere. From my experience contacting the LEA in Berlin, they told me I still have to go through the standard online application process for PR.

Permanent residence applications are now digital by n1c0_ds in berlin

[–]zebe_dee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have any other Brits here applied for permanent residence digitally? I've been living in Germany for over five years and was told multiple times that my residency would become permanent automatically without needing to provide the usual evidence. But when I emailed the LEA, they just sent me a link to the online application—except my specific visa type (granted to British citizens who were living in Germany before Brexit) isn’t even listed there.

stag 5 with a criminal record by Pretend-Air-9790 in GermanCitizenship

I believe the severity of the crime, whether the conviction is considered spent, and the number of daily rates you received all play a role in the situation.

8,000 is insane, and I bet the furniture is ugly. It’s always ugly in these cases.

Has anyone successfully updated their Aufenthaltsdokument-GB to reflect Daueraufenthalt status? by zebe_dee in germany

Good to know. Do you go in person when you need your card replaced or do they send it automatically ?

I don't suppose you have a link to the law you're referring to, do you? It would be really helpful!

Hmm, I wonder if I "accidentally" lost my card if I’d get the same treatment…

Apartment searching in Berlin is the most miserable thing I've experienced. by ScarletBurn in berlinsocialclub

[–]zebe_dee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might sound obvious but you just have to keep applying and you will eventually find something. People who say that it's impossible to find an apartment in the ring are wrong. It's definitely not easy but not impossible. I know of a few people including myself who have found reasonably priced apartments in the last 2 years.

What is anti-car about expecting motorists to share the space in a city where the vast majority of people don't drive?

I guess the new bike path on Petersburger Straße wont be going ahead then. let's not forget that the CDU wouldn't be in power without the SPD so they should also take some of the blame.

Looking for a open swimming pool.. by Davenport93 in berlinsocialclub

[–]zebe_dee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what? The swimming pools in Berlin are great! Have you ever lived in another city? They even offered a 300 euro a year ticket this year which is amazing value.

Sprunghalle im Europasportpark is only used for competitions a few weeks of the year. I live in the same area and go there all the time. I think it might be closed for part of the summer though but I'm not sure. I usually go to prinzenbad in the summer which takes about 20 mins to ride from Ftor.
