You’ve been trying to figure out your Career in Germany and it’s exhausting

Find out how AVGS-Job Coaching can help.

Professional Job Coaching in Berlin or Remote: 100 % Free with Your AVGS Voucher

The German job market has its own rules. The process is confusing, the expectations unclear and you’re left figuring it out alone. Together, we build a clear plan so you can move forward with confidence.

Lost in the German Job Market

Applications in Germany follow unwritten rules. You’re not sure what’s expected and every rejection drains your energy.

Unclear What to Do Next

You have experience, but turning it into a job search strategy feels impossible.
Where do you even start?

Stuck After Unemployment

Time is passing, confidence is slipping. The longer it takes, the harder it feels to get moving again.

CV and LinkedIn Feel Off

You know your documents could be stronger, but you’re not sure how to position yourself clearly.

No Network Here

Especially in a new or international environment: you don’t know who to reach out to or how to build the right connections.

Not Sure If You Qualify for AVGS

You’ve heard about the voucher but don’t know if you’re eligible or what it actually covers.

This is what staying stuck actually does to you

Without a clear plan, career uncertainty doesn’t just persist — it deepens. Days turn into weeks. Momentum becomes harder to rebuild. You risk accepting the wrong job out of desperation, not alignment.

Valentina Bianchini

Niv helped me figure out what would be important for me to consider when choosing a direction for my job, and what actions I can take in order to explore where I want to go. I experienced him as supporting, open, enthusiastic and professional. The tools that he gave me were really inspiring and useful for me to get a sense of what my next steps are. I would definitely recommend him if you, like, me, are exploring your sense of direction.

Nivs coaching has opened my heart and helped me to connect deeper to my true passion. I believe in the power of community and help building communities. Niv helped me to continue doing that by allowing me to feel my passion and love for what I do through a special method that focuses on resources and feels great. I also realized that I am loved no matter what I do and that I have an important job to do out there, because the remote-world needs communities. Thank you Niv

What Is the AVGS Voucher and How Does It Work?

The Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein (AVGS) is issued by the Agentur für Arbeit or Jobcenter and covers the full cost of job coaching with a certified provider. I work together with Beratungsgesellschaft M. Willkomm mbH, an AZAV-accredited training provider, which means our coaching programme is fully AVGS-eligible. You pay nothing.

1

Request your AVGS voucher

At your next appointment with the Arbeitsagentur or Jobcenter, ask for an AVGS voucher for job coaching. I’ll tell you exactly what to say beforehand.

2

Book your free info call with me

We talk about your situation, I explain how the programme works, and we check if we’re a good fit. No commitment, no pressure.

3

Coaching starts, zero cost to you

Beratungsgesellschaft M. Willkomm mbH handles all administration and billing directly with the agency. You focus entirely on finding your next job.

FAQ

Questions? I have answers.

Who is eligible for an AVGS voucher?

You are most likely eligible if you are currently receiving ALG I (Arbeitslosengeld I) from the Agentur für Arbeit, or ALG II / Bürgergeld from the Jobcenter. The final decision is made by your case worker (Arbeitsvermittler/In) — but I can help you prepare for that conversation and explain what to ask for

Does AVGS job coaching cost me anything?

No. The AVGS voucher covers 100 % of the coaching costs. Beratungsgesellschaft M. Willkomm mbH, our AZAV-certified partner, bills the agency directly. There are no costs for you at any point.

Can I do the coaching online?

Yes. All sessions can take place online via video call, in German or English. You don’t need to be based in Berlin.

How long does AVGS job coaching last?

The duration depends on the voucher your employment agency issues. Most programmes run between 6 and 12 weeks. We’ll clarify the exact scope during the info call.

What if my voucher request is rejected?

If the AVGS isn’t approved, you can still book a single Career Clarity Session (90 min, €129 offer till 31.05.26) or one of my paid coaching programmes. We’ll discuss your options in the info call and find the best suitable way.
