Moving to Berlin, advice needed

15 years ago
Hi, I'm sure this is a topic that has been treaded over many times but I'm new on here and in need of advice.

Myself and two friends are planning to move to Berlin in August and we need advice on finding work.

I appreciate that there are a few issues internationally with employment but I need to know realistically what the chances of 3 non-german speaking/limited german speaking guys finding work is. We wont be looking for career opportunities, just jobs that pay enough to cover rent and realistically live.

Any advice you could give on the situation and suggestions of where to start looking would be most appreciated.

Also can anybody give me a rough idea of the average amount of rent I would expect to pay in the various areas of Berlin?

I have searched the board but I would imagine that the employment and accommodation are rapidly changing.

Any advice you guys can give on these or any other issues you think we may encounter would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Joe
