Moving to Germany, which visa should i apply.

9 years ago

Hi, I am a pharmacist practicing in Malaysia and am an experienced violin tutor.
I am planning to move to germany in the near future with my fiance and now i have dilemma in choosing the correct visa to move forward.
Ultimately i would like to have a stable job there to support my family. I am looking forward to stay there for a period of not lesser than 6 months to see if i am able to adapt. There has been few visas which i could apply:
Language visa. I intend to study language eith the vhs however their course for july onwards will only be announce this coming june and the visa will take up to 2 months for processing.
Job seeker visa. Which is for a period of 6 months only enabling me to search for a job within this period of time.
EU Blue Card Entry Visa. Need to be employedfor this visa.
I heard it is possible that some company do not need a german speaking foreigner to work for them but i am not sure where to start searching online.
I need advices and suggestions regarding job perspective for foreign pharmacist in germany or is it better to take up language course beforehand? My profession requires me to be a C2 language level in Germany if i were to work as a community pharmacist.
It seems difficult to be a music tutor as I am not able to converse in germany yet and i need to be qualified as a teacher there before i could teach.
