The Federal Employment Agency has set up a special telephone hotline for refugees from Ukraine. There, counseling specialists provide refugees with information on the Job and education search in Ukrainian and Russian:

0911 1787915*

The hotline is available from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Fridays. 

The service is aimed at people who are interested in taking up employment or training, e.g. for the recognition of foreign school and vocational qualifications and for language courses.

*The call is not toll-free. There are charges for a call to the German fixed network. It is not technically possible to set up a toll-free hotline, as 0800 numbers cannot be dialed with phones equipped with a Ukrainian mobile phone contract.
