Eric Ohlmann* turned to the state initiative Fachkraft im Fokus because he wanted to reorient himself professionally. The software developer moved back to Saxony-Anhalt from Munich two years ago, but continued to work from home at a Munich-based IT company.
Working from home awakened Eric Ohlmann's* desire for more contact with other people and a professional reorientation in Saxony-Anhalt. In addition to looking for a new job in the IT sector, he was also interested in a career change as a teacher in Saxony-Anhalt.
Our regional consultant for skilled workers, Nicole Kegel, researched suitable jobs in the IT sector for the 38-year-old and supported the software developer in the application process. She also gathered information on lateral entry as a teacher: the possibility of studying should not be ruled out either.
After careful consideration and several discussions, Eric Ohlmann* decided to study to become a teacher in Magdeburg, which he will start in October 2022.
"I would like to say a big thank you to you, because your support, including the interviews in the IT departments, helped me to make this decision," says the prospective student, thanking regional advisor Nicole Kegel for her commitment.
