Note: Other Filipinos who are not working in the business industry or are still studying in Germany, please feel free to also reply! I would really love to hear from everyone!

Hallo! I'm a Filipino university student taking Business Administration with a focus on Marketing, and is planning to take my MBA/Masters Degree in Germany, specifically in Cologne (probably after 1-2 years of work experience, but I'm starting to learn German now). I would just like to ask the following:

1. How is your life there? Was it hard to adapt?
2. I heard that it's very hard to find a job especially if it's not medical or tech (most of the Filipinos in Germany I've also seen on Social Media are in those industry), any tips on what I need to learn before coming to Germany? Except learning the language, I'm alr trying to learn wahaha
3. Marami ba mga Pinoy sa area niyo (especially sa Cologne)? Medyo natatakot kasi ako na wala akong Filipino community na malalapitan
4. And lastly, how different is the office culture between the Philippines and Germany, and did you have a hard time adjusting?
