As well as beautiful cities, access to the rest of the EU, sun and snow, a fantastic culture, excellent public transportation\u00a0systems, low crime rates, the autobahn and not forgetting of course bread, beer\u00a0and some of the most scenic outdoors in Europe. Germany is generally a very safe place and has a fundamentally solid economy.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the top ten reasons we think Germany is a great place to relocate to for semiconductor engineers.<\/p>\n<h2>1) An established industry<\/h2>\n<p>Germany offers great opportunities for Analog Mixed Signal IC Designers, AMS Verification and Layout Engineers, RF IC Designers as well as Digital IC Designers and Digital Verification Engineers. There is\u00a0a growing number of Semiconductor start-ups as well as well-known companies like Apple, STMicroelectronics, Qualcomm, Analog Devices, Renesas, Infineon, ams-OSRAM, Intel, Global Foundries, NXP and Robert Bosch with multiple sites across the country.\u00a0Germany is world-leading in the development and manufacturing of automotive applications.<\/p>\n<h2>2) Investment into chip development and manufacturing<\/h2>\n<p>Germany is seeking to establish itself as a major semiconductor production force in order to pave the way for future markets dependent on semiconductor applications. Germany\u2019s chip production ambitions are helping attract more and larger investment projects as the continent seeks to establish security of supply and technological sovereignty into the future.

Most companies in Germany are helpful in supporting the visa process as well as supporting with immigration\/relocation for their new employees.<\/p>\n<h2>6) Regulated working hours and holidays<\/h2>\n<p>Enjoy up to 30 days\/year depending on the industry plus public holidays &#8211; 40 days in total time off to enjoy!<\/p>\n<h2>7) Taxation and social security<\/h2>\n<p>Like everywhere, various taxes are directly deducted from your gross salary before you receive your net salary. You also pay\u00a0social security contributions and your tax bracket is influenced by factors like marriage or the number of children you have. The German system is traditional, stable and built on a security and welfare system that provides for people in times of illness or unemployment. This is via an insurance scheme that is mandatory and includes\u00a0health insurance, nursing care insurance, pension insurance, accident insurance, unemployment insurance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>8) Education<\/h2>\n<p>Children\u2019s schooling is free in the public sector and Germany enjoys a good reputation for its higher education sector as well. There are over 400 universities,\u00a0many of them scoring high in international rankings among the top universities in the world. Students that are based in Germany, pay a small semester fee and enjoy many benefits.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>9) Language<\/h2>\n<p>Germans learn English in school and it is possible to communicate in English in Germany, even though as everywhere, locals appreciate it if you try to speak their language. The German cities where it is the easiest to communicate in English include those with the biggest Semiconductor industries, such as; Karlsruhe,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ic-resources.com\/en\/article\/munich-city-guide\">Munich<\/a>, Dresden, D\u00fcsseldorf,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ic-resources.com\/en\/article\/stuttgart-city-guide\">Stuttgart<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ic-resources.com\/en\/article\/hamburg-city-guide\">Hamburg<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ic-resources.com\/en\/article\/frankfurt-city-guide\">Frankfurt<\/a>\u00a0(you can find more information on living and working in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ic-resources.com\/en\/article\/berlin-city-guide\">Berlin here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h2>10) Lifestyle<\/h2>\n<p>Germany is a great place to live. It\u2019s considered\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cntraveler.com\/gallery\/the-10-best-countries-for-expats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the 8th best country<\/a>\u00a0for expats because it\u2019s\u00a0safe, pretty, has a great culture\u00a0and is very well-organised. Because of their stellar public transportation, Germany is well-connected and it\u2019s very easy to explore the country and its neighbours.\u00a0The German economy is another highlight. It is considered the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/insights\/worlds-top-economies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">largest economy in Europe<\/a>, but is still an affordable place to live.\u00a0For an experienced Semiconductor professional, Germany could be the country that provides long term job security and everything you need to raise a family. It is generally a very safe country and has a fundamentally solid economy.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in building your future in Germany, you will be offered top quality working conditions, generous benefits, state-mandated job protection and some of the highest salaries in the world.\u00a0All in all, Germany\u2019s highly developed infrastructure and robust economy offer you a multitude of solid reasons to move to the country.<\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"\/sector\/analog-mixed-signal\/\"><strong>View our current<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Analog \/ Mixed Signal IC opportunities
