We discuss your hiring needs, including job roles, work location, shifts, joining date and German language level. We also confirm whether you need candidates with recognised qualifications or those who will complete recognition in Germany.
Rao International finds suitable candidates across India and checks their qualifications, professional registration (where required), work experience, German language skills and identity documents. We conduct interviews and share shortlisted candidates with your team for final selection.
Healthcare professionals may need their qualifications recognised by the relevant German authority before working in certain roles. Requirements depend on the profession and location. Nurses generally need B2-level German for full professional recognition, subject to applicable rules.
Eligible candidates may also complete qualification recognition in Germany through an approved route. Rao International helps prepare documents and coordinates with the employer to identify the applicable process.
Important: Visa, language and recognition requirements vary by profession. Current rules should be confirmed before applying.
Once the required visa and approvals are granted, Rao International coordinates travel arrangements and departure documents. The employer manages the employment contract, accommodation and required local registration.
We stay in touch with the worker and your HR team after arrival, helping with documentation, joining formalities and qualification recognition queries.
A hospital, clinic or healthcare facility offers the worker a job in Germany.
The worker checks whether their nursing or healthcare qualifications are accepted in Germany. Some jobs require official recognition of qualifications and a professional licence.
Usually required:
The worker applies for the appropriate German work visa and submits the required documents through the responsible German embassy or consulate.
The German authorities check the application and confirm whether the worker meets the requirements.
After visa approval, the worker travels to Germany and completes any required residence registration or permit formalities before starting work.
A German employer hires healthcare staff from India through a recruitment agency that finds the candidates. Each worker needs recognition of the qualification, where the role requires it. Each worker also needs a work visa under the Skilled Immigration Act. Rao International handles sourcing, screening and the worker’s paperwork. The employer issues the job offer and the work contract.
Rao International recruits registered nurses, geriatric nurses and care workers, physiotherapists, medical assistants, and radiology and OT technicians. It also recruits nursing assistants, elderly-care assistants and care support workers. Each role has its own recognition and visa route. Rao International confirms it before shortlisting.
Nurse recognition in Germany takes a different time in each federal state. The time depends on how complete the papers are. It also depends on whether the authority asks for an adaptation measure. Rao International gives employers a timeline only after it reviews the candidate’s file.
Foreign nurses need German at B2 level to get full permission to work as a nurse in Germany. A nurse who enters through the recognition partnership needs German at A2 level on arrival. That nurse must still reach B2 for full recognition.
Yes, Rao International can find care assistants and elderly-care assistants in India for German nursing homes. Assistant roles follow different qualification rules from registered nurse roles. Rao International confirms the recognition and visa route for each role before it shortlists anyone.
Rao International shortlists candidates with their documented German level, from A2 to B2. Every shortlist lists the certificate level for each person. The employer can then choose staff who are ready now, or staff who need more language study.
