Your questions about working with us.

How do we get access to MyDPKS?

Send us an access request for your organisation. Together, we discuss your staffing needs and arrange your access. You can then explore the candidate profiles shared with your organisation.

How soon can a nurse start?

The possible start date depends on language skills, available documents and the procedures required. Preparation that is already underway may shorten the remaining time. We discuss a specific timeframe based on each profile; this does not yet constitute a confirmed start date.

What are the terms for access and collaboration?

Services and costs depend on the agreed scope. We discuss the terms for MyDPKS access and recruitment with you before you agree to work with us.

What can we see in MyDPKS?

You can see the candidate profiles shared with your organisation, along with your tasks and documents for the joint preparation. Personal information is visible according to the relevant permissions.

What qualifications do the nurses have?

We focus on nurses with a university bachelor’s degree in nursing. Qualifications, work experience and language skills are considered individually. The status of professional recognition in Germany is shown separately.

How does DPKS support recognition and entry into Germany?

We coordinate the agreed document preparation and communication between everyone involved. You will know which information your organisation needs to provide. Decisions on the procedures are made by the responsible authorities.
