The particular challenge lies in rural areas away from metropolitan areas. Our guide offers a comprehensive insight into proven talent acquisition methods and shows how employees can be sustainably integrated into the company. Successful integration requires more than just introducing new employees. We highlight the importance of an inclusive work environment based on openness, communication and collaboration. Through targeted measures, we promote a positive corporate culture that highlights the strengths of each individual. This includes, among other things, the following points: - Accompaniment during official visits, account opening, insurance, driver's license, doctors, etc. (including as an interpreter) - Help with finding accommodation - Integration into everyday German life (GEZ, waste separation, etc.) and cultural onboarding - Company-owned bi-lingual kindergarten and elementary school - In-house language courses (German & English) with your own teacher, language buddies and language cafe - Monthly newsletter to give all (including German) colleagues an insight into other cultures, including information about changes to laws - Festival of Cultures (once a year) with many different activities - Initiation of a permanent welcome office for international citizens near the city of Lingen - Standardized relocation packages (including reimbursement of flight costs, apartment/rental car for 2 months, visa fees, excess luggage, etc.) both for internal colleagues and, in a somewhat slimmed-down version, also for new colleagues Our guide is the signpost to a sustainable and successful future. Together we build bridges to attract talent and build long-term relationships. Together we are creating a working world based on inclusion and collaboration - one in which walls no longer have any place. ## Speakers ### [Kerstin](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@kerstin) ROSEN Group ### [Sarah](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@sarah) Head of Talent Acquisition at ROSEN ### [Tobias Stahl](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@tobias-stahl) HR People Integration & Mobility at ROSEN ## Related talks at this congress - [Successful talent development: A joint journey of executives and talents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2024/sessions/419-successful-talent) — Dennis Schmidt, Julia Schroeder, Stefan Menschner, Tabitha Kleine - ["Workation - the (new) freedom to work"](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2024/sessions/305-workation-the-new) — Stefan Dietz - [Decoding Global (Tech) Talent: The Era of Candidates](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2024/sessions/36-decoding-global-tech) — Tobias Zimmermann - [Successfully promoting your female talents - that's what matters](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2024/sessions/407-successfully) — Melanie Wagner
