Official & free
Selection is by the government, through official channels — and taking part is always free.
Official channels Report a feeDoes it cost anything to apply?
No. Pre-selection by the public authority is free of charge. Anyone who asks you to pay is breaking the law.
Can a private agency get me this job?
No. Private agencies are not entitled to recruit for the German circular migration programme.
Has selection started?
According to the latest official notice, the selection process has not yet started. The requirements and process will be announced through official channels.
Who actually selects workers?
Pre-selection is by the Kenya Public Employment Service Unit. Final selection is by the German employer, together with the German and Kenyan authorities.
Is this permanent migration to Germany?
No. It is six-month, fixed-term construction work. You return home at the end of the contract; the programme is cyclical, so you can take part again in future cohorts.
What does registering interest here do?
It helps you understand the programme and prepare your documents. It does not guarantee selection — only the authorities select.
