GERMAN INTERNATIONAL RECRUITING
& FOREIGN HR CONSULTING

1) FROM CEO TO CEO

Dear experts in HR, dear ladies and gentlemen,

I am Peter M. Barnefske (PMB), the CEO of PHOENIX GIR, and I will guide you through our website. Find decisive information about one of the most profitable HR markets globally for foreign HR agencies with focus on staffing, recruitment, direct/executive search:

GERMANY

Highly profitable also (and especially) during Covid-19.

2) NEW IMMIGRATION LAW OPENS THE DOORS FOR FOREIGN HR AGENCIES

Because of their huge demand for qualified staff Germany's companies increased their international recruitment activities by 100+%, some even up to 350%. Germany's government supports them by the new law for work immigration (FEG), by which foreign HR agencies and their candidates enter Germany's HR Market much easier and faster now.

European, Asian, American and African HR agencies with focus on staffing, recruitment and/or direct search/headhunting since March 1, 2020 highly profit from one of the wealthiest economies. Agencies, who adapt to Germany's HR market characteristics grow and expand their businesses by recruiting and placing candidates from their home countries or by opening own offices in Germany.

3) GERMANY'S HR MARKET & C-19

Like in most countries, the German companies in 2020 jammed the brakes, too. Germany's unemployment rate increased slightly, and several companies carried out redundancies. Nevertheless:

Germany's companies offered the enormous number of 12,718,466 jobs in the "C-19 Year 2020". In fact the German HR market only got a "black eye" by C-19. By using "short time work" most German companies keep their well-trained staff on board and demonstrate their strong social ties with their inter/national employees.

Also compared internationally, Germany generally is quite "immune" to economic fluctuations.

4) GERMANY'S HR MARKET NOW

Germany's HR market grows rapidly again (7,196,695 jobs over the past 6 months). On 04/03/2021 the number of jobs to fill already jumped up to 3,118,712. This number is:

Closest to Germany's all-time high in jobs in 2019/2020,
where the companies had to fill 3,371,461 jobs.
A growth of +122.5% from Germany's C-19 low in 05.2020.
The highest number of jobs all over Europe.
Among the highest numbers of jobs of a country in the world.

Famous Companies as Clients. Popular Employers for Candidates.

5) GERMANY (HR) FORECAST 2021/2022

Also the German Labour Market Barometer of the IAB institute rose up to 102.4 points in 04.2021. The highest level since 05.2019.

Germany's companies & recruiters now push the economy to the previous high level again. Despite strict C-19-rules. And according to the experts of various German institutions the forecasts for Germany (and thus also for foreign HR agencies) further are positive. In brief:

Further strong recovery of Germany's economy with an expected growth of 3.2% - 4.4%. At the beginning of 2022, Europe's largest economy is expected to return to its pre-corona-level.
Employment is expected to continue to increase and unemploy-ment to fall all over Germany. Even in case (or because!) of more lockdowns the companies will continue hiring.
Almost every 3rd German company recruits more lateral entrants (Quereinsteiger) from other industries & professions (survey of 1,900 recruiters and 2,500+ executives).
C-19 is an accelerator regarding "Home Office/Remote Working". This opens up new options for foreign HR agencies & candidates.
German companies will recruit from the global workforce more than ever. In lots of industries they have an enormous demand in:

trained professionals & skilled workers
specialists & experts (= academic)
managers of all hierarchies
young talents (apprentices) and freshly graduated juniors
