Assistance to SMEs. To help German businesses face the growing lack of skilled workers, the Federal Employment Agency, through its Foreign Workers Placement services (ZAV), has been carrying out, for about two years now, an active recruitment policy of young graduates in southern European countries, racked by record unemployment rates (see our dispatch No. 110489). Thus, in addition to information campaigns last summer, pointing to Germany’s need for skilled workers, the ZAV offers a wide range of services to German businesses: posting their job offers on the databases of the EURES European network, shortlisting received applications and organizing meetings between the applicants and the companies during local job fairs, etc. A ZAV spokesman said this offer was mostly addressed to SMEs as, unlike large businesses, they don’t have personnel departments capable of carrying out their own recruitment policy abroad. Within a few months, 17,000 Spanish people requested information about coming to work in Germany.
