Hi

I'm a 23 year old Austarilan looking for work in Hannover as I have just moved here with my German wife. Willing to take any kind of job, for more details please contact me.

Thank you, Marc

Can you speak German?

Very very little at the moment but I'm learning

Try bar work, there are a few irish and english pubs in Hannover. Or there´s the american bar Henry J. Bean´s. I know the Dublin Inn behind the old Town Hall was recently looking for people.

For clarification, I can tell willum's been in Hannover for a while, because "Henry J. Bean's" is the old name, which hasn't been used in years.

(Somewhere I even have a T-shirt with the old name and logo on it. Must be at least 10 years old.)

It's now Henry's Griddle, and yes, they are frequently looking for people.

There are some other American bars and restaurants that might be hiring:

or Jack the Ripper's:

Good luck!

Blimey, you´re right. Just goes to show, doesn´t it?

I must say I´ve never heard of the other places, apart from Jack´s - seeing as I´ve so seldom left the little ol´ Nordstadt in all those years.

BTW, what´s it going to be, you and M, pistols at dawn? Hope we can all be friends!

PS: Drew a "not found" at Mels Diner and the Star Diner.

Mel's Diner's site is perennially appearing and disappearing. But trust me, they're still there. (Hildesheimer Straße, near the Messe in Laatzen -- address at http://www.qype.com/place/13177-Mel-s-Diner-Laatzen. IMO the best American restaurant in town, even if they also seem to think "American food" is nothing but burgers, but at least it's more authentic than most places if 1950s diners are your thing.)

The Star Diner one's OK, but the forum software inserted a parenthesis at the end. Delete it and the site works.

Pistols at dawn? I prefer tactical nuclear weapons. For myself, that is. You can have the pistol if you insist.

Cheers,

Hey Marc,

I'm in the same boat! moving to Hannover end of March to live with my girlfriend and my German's not too flash. Don't have any tips but I'll keep you posted if I find something. Have you tried any of the pubs mentioned above yet?

Catch ya,

Dan

Thanks for all the ideas everyone going to give some of the pubs a try, and Dan I will let you know if I have any luck?

Thanks again, Marc

Thanks for the info.

What´s with your trusty Colt then? Although, I didn´t actually mean me with M - I was thinking of our antipodean friend, whose name begins with the aforesaid letter. I was planning to watch as a neutral observer.

My first job in Germany was teaching English for a company called Inlingua. I know I have mentioned them in another post and please believe me I am NOT advertising. It is just a coincidence. They only use native speakers, you get training and dont need prior teaching experience. I know they need people because the manager just went to England to try and find new teachers. The pay is good, the only down side is that you usually teach after work hours because that is when companies want their staff to have lessons. I did it for a year and had so much fun. I also learnt loads of German doing this because the students are always telling you what this word is in German.
