A German job interview (Vorstellungsgespräch) tends to be more structured and direct than what you may be used to: a short self-introduction, questions about your qualifications and past experience, why you left your last role or want this one, and — especially if you are new to Germany — questions about your residence status and German level. German workplace communication generally values directness and preparation over charm: naming specific past achievements and asking informed questions about the role tends to land better than a purely enthusiastic, general answer. Asagno's job-interview roleplay puts you through exactly this with an AI interviewer, at your level, in text or voice, then gives you a full report — objectives met, language mistakes with corrections, and phrases that would have landed better — so you rehearse before it counts.
What you'll learn
- A short, structured self-introduction: name, background, relevant experience, why this role
- Talking about past jobs and achievements using Perfekt tense naturally
- Answering "Warum wollen Sie bei uns arbeiten?" (why do you want to work here) specifically, not generically
- Questions it is normal — even expected — for you to ask the interviewer
- AI interview roleplay at your level, with a full report of mistakes and better phrasing
A stronger way to answer a common question
Weak: "Ich bin sehr motiviert und lerne schnell." (I am very motivated and learn fast.) Stronger: "In meiner letzten Stelle habe ich ein Team von drei Personen geleitet und den Umsatz um 15% gesteigert." (In my last role I led a team of three and increased revenue by 15%.) Specific, past-tense, measurable — this is what interviewers in Germany respond to.
Frequently asked questions
What level of German do I need for a job interview?
It depends entirely on the role and employer — some technical or English-first-language workplaces interview partly in English, while most customer-facing or German-employer roles expect at least B1–B2. Check the job listing or ask before assuming.
Will I be asked about my residence status?
It is common in Germany for an employer to ask whether you are authorised to work, since they carry legal responsibility for it — this is a normal, expected question, not a red flag.
