Indeed.
2 :
yes, maybe as a front desk clerk in a hotel
3 :
its bit difficult bt in some jobs u can
4 :
It will be possible. Here are a lot illegal Africans working here. But it will be hard to survive. But if you are one of the top players in industrie there will be no problem getting a high rated job here. Frohe Weihnachten from Hamburg,Germany Heinz
5 :
Why sure... you can just go there and they will be waiting at the border to hire you because they don't need any more german speaking people.. you will be hired on the spot.
6 :
Yes at a Turkish Donner place !
7 :
Yes but I would not recommend it!!
8 :
It all depends what kind of job you want to have. It is posible but only for jobs other people don'T want to work in so it is rather not recomandable.
9 :
No. Depending upon the kind of work you can start without knowing any German, but in the long run you'll be forced to learn German. It is simply a matter of necessity. It is very difficult to deal with everyday live in Germany if you do not speak any German. It is also very difficult to find a job, since the large majority of jobs require at least some basic knowledge of the local language. Most importantly: The German Office for Foreigners (Ausländerbehörde) will not allow you to become a legal long-term resident if you cannot prove basic knowledge of German. They can force you to attend lessons in German if you don't. This question will come up when you apply for a residency permit.

As an English speaker. You can pick something up at an Airport, teaching English or depending on your background check doing security at an Amerícan Army base. Berlitz hires native speakers on a constant basis and Ponds Security Service hires regularly. Dealing with the German Alien and Labor office you'll need to bring someone as a translator. They can only speak German to you. Viel Gluck.

If you are a US citizen you can get a job with the US military
12 :
Let's be honest: No! Although a lot of Germans speak English nowadays, or other foreign languages, the only official language is German, no matter where you work. If you are IN the military you may get away with it, but you're not considered working on German territory. If you work FOR the military, as a civilian hire, you still have to speak German. Everything else is nonsense. To work in a hotel or as an English teacher you need to have some German knowledge, period.
13 :
Only for the Military Bases. You need to look at the Government jobs for overseas. If you are teacher, nurse, manager, doctor you can find jobs easy.
14 :
Yes it is possible. But I think you will rather learn some German. My Boyfriend is American and he works for an American company. He don´t need German for his Job but he have problems like, many people in the company are German and he don´t understand what they say cause they sometimes speak German in the office or during the break time. So I think learning German will be better and will help you to become integrated in Germany. Good look

Apply for a federal job. You don't need a sponsor. http://jobsearch.usajobs.gov/Channels/USAJOBS/search.aspx?q=&lid=18183&ca=&salmin=&salmax=&FedEmp=N&sort=rv&vw=d&brd=3876&ss=0&FedPub=Y&submit1.x=113&submit1.y=5

Will a DVD purchased from Germany work in American DVD players or do they have a different format

Will a DVD purchased from Germany work in American DVD players or do they have a different format?

No, it most likely won't (unless labelled region free which is not that common). Most DVDs have a region code that restricts it to being watched only on DVD players of this particular region. The USA, Canada etc. are region 1, whereas Europe [including Germany] and most parts of Asia are region 2. So, if there's the possibility of ordering a region free copy of this DVD, it'll all be just fine otherwise it, I'm afraid, won't work. Hope it helped.
2 :
No, but you can watch it on your Computer.Thats how I do it.
3 :
Unless it is a universal DVD, it will more than likely not work. PAL 2 does not work in US.
4 :
normally no its regional coded unless its not formatted...it does work though if it is either porn or if it was purchased on an american army post.
