Germany remote work FAQ

Do I need to be based in Germany to apply?
It depends on the company. German-listed roles often require EU work authorization or German residency. Some companies are open to fully remote workers based anywhere in the EU. Always check for location restrictions.
What cities in Germany have the most remote job listings?
