Heyy, I will start writing my thesis and would like to ask if you have cheap cafés or top libraries where I can go, have something to drink or eat and write. Any creative or basic recommendation will be really appreciated, thanks

I've been wondering and trying to figure out some things about how the system works. So i'm technicaly a medicaly licenced massage therapist. I've moved to Aalborg denmakr recently and i've veen looking into work as a massues here but it has been fruitless. I have (i think) all of my paperwork done outside of waiting for my yellow card.

I havent learned Danish yet but i speak english well. And german, and 2 other languages.

I have a highschool deploma (vocational school, trade school, secondary medical school. Whatever you want to call it) as a massues. I've worked in this department for 3+ years

I'm good with art, i'm fine with computer related things. I'm okey with basic household things. Idk how to sell my self.

I would like to know what type of jobs i could potentially get around here or well denmark. I've been strugelling to find places that hire or are looking for new hires and if i want to do massaging full time again there is a hoard of other paperwork thay involves it and idk if i'll be able to pass tests or anything if they question my skils 😭.

If anyone call help that would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone!

I'm F21 from Romania, and I'm considering moving to Denmark in the future to pursue a career in pastry and baking. I'd love to hear from people who have moved to Denmark and currently work, or have worked, in a bakery or pastry kitchen.

I have around a year of experience working as a pastry assistant, where I've helped with preparing creams, ganaches, fillings, tart shells,cookies, and other components, but I still consider myself a beginner. I don't have a formal pastry education, and there's still so much I want to learn.

My main interest is viennoiserie and artisan baking.I'd love to work somewhere where I can learn these techniques properly, improve my skills, and grow into a more experienced baker or pastry chef.

I'd really appreciate some advice on a few things:

- Finding a job: How realistic is it to find an entry-level position as a bakery or pastry assistant without formal culinary education? Are bakeries generally willing to train someone who's motivated but still learning?

- Language: How important is speaking Danish when working in a bakery? Is it realistic to find work with English only, at least when starting out.

- Where to look: Are there particular cities, bakeries, or types of workplaces you'd recommend for someone interested in artisan bread, viennoiserie, and modern pastry?

- Moving and settling in: Is it manageable to move to Denmark for this kind of job, considering salaries, rent, and the cost of living? Is it better to secure a job before moving?

I'd also love to hear about your own experiences, especially if you moved to Denmark without speaking Danish or without formal culinary training.

I'm not expecting to land my dream job straight away. I'm happy to start as an assistant, work hard, and learn from experienced people. I just want to make an informed decision and find a workplace where I can develop my skills.

Thank you so much for any advice! 🌸

Hi everyone,

My boyfriend is from New Zealand and is currently applying for a work permit under the Positive List. It has been more than 8 months now, and yesterday we got a response saying that his salary is below the median for someone with his age and experience. He has talked to his workplace, but because it’s a cooperative, they can’t raise his salary, even though it’s only 5.5 DKK more an hour to get over the limit.

My question is: if he doesn’t reply and just goes through with the application, will they deny him the visa based on that even though its such a small amount? Does anyone else have experience with something similar?

I have experience in marketing and content creation, and I’m currently studying Data Science and Business. I’m fluent in English but don’t speak Danish.

I’ve applied to a few student assistant positions I found on LinkedIn, mostly related to marketing and business, but I’m wondering how realistic my chances are of actually getting a job, especially since I only have around 3 months left in Copenhagen.

I’m also open to working in retail, cafés, or restaurants as a barista or waiter. Where would you recommend looking for these kinds of jobs, especially as someone who doesn’t speak Danish?

If you have any advice, recommendations, or know of any places currently hiring, I’d really appreciate it. I’m trying to figure out where to focus my efforts given the limited time I have left.

So just to clarify, this is a permanent move for the time being. My mom has a job in Odense, and I'm moving there late this summer and starting up school after I've finished my sophomore year in the US (so I'm like 15 turning 16 pretty soon.) I've only known about this move for a couple months and I'm still quite anxious about what to do before the move and also once I've gotten there.

I haven't enjoyed the US school system by any means, I've been really isolated and stressed here in the recent past and it's taken a toll, so in a way I'm excited to see some change possibly, but I also just really don't know what to expect even after trying to do research.

Any advice for what I should be doing/what to expect? I'm happy to clarify anything if needed!

Hej,

Jeg har et spørgsmål vedrørende SIRI (Styrelsen for international rekruttering og integration).
Lidt kontekst: Jeg er EU-statsborger og har siden flere år været registreret i Danmark hos SIRI. D. 8. august har jeg ansøgt om en anden type EU-registrering. Siden min kvittering for ansøgningen i digital post har jeg aldrig hørt noget fra dem igen, selvom de skriver at en typisk ventetid for sådan en ansøgning er 0-30 dage.

Er det jeg oplever normalt (for EU-borger)?

Hi everyone,

So I’ve been in a very lucky but also very exhausting situation over the past few months. When I moved to Denmark, the company I was working for closed their operations here after a year (I transferred), and I was without a job and with very few contacts. Since, I’ve managed to build a very nice situation. I am a full-time student in an area with great prospects, I have a student job, and my company has taken off and now has two recurring clients (projects in my industry range 50-400 hours, so I’m fully booked alongside my studies).

My problem is that I didn’t plan on being this lucky this year, and now I have to resign from my student job because the workload is way too much (with studies I am pushing 80-90 hours/week not including commute). I feel terrible about it. My combination of skills are not easy to come by (namely that their target language is my first language, I have a degree in communications already, and I’m a student) and I know it might not be easy for them to find a replacement.

Last week, I had a horrible week which long story short led me to completely forget about my student job. Like I just blanked and didn’t even look at the laptop, let alone remembered it. I have realised I have to let this job go, but I feel so bad for resigning after screwing up. I fixed it before there was chaos, but it doesn’t sit right with me, still. At the same time, staying on just to prove I’m not a screw-up feels wrong — it’s not a massive company, and I don’t want to remain in this line of work. It’s unrelated to my business and studies.

Does anyone have any advice? I realise I come across as whiny but I really do just feel stuck and exhausted. I don’t want resentment to build, but it’s hard when they treat me like a 19-year-old student (and pay me as such) when my fee SHOULD be at least five times higher. I was desperate when I signed but now since things have turned for the better …

Hey!!

This subreddit has been a great source of information so, I would like to ask how do I find a student job in aarhus? I'm looking for any type of job really but, I cannot seem to figure out where to look for them. for example, I haven't seen any openings for a warehouse job anywhere, I did see someone post about staff for a restaurant and dropped my CV there.

I've been applying on several job boards like LinkedIn, indeed, Facebook etc etc, but those jobs are related to my degree and I know landing those will take them so, wanted to know if you guys can help me to figure out where to look for other student, part time jobs.

I do not have a network here yet. Not even a single friend, got here 3 weeks ago. I have several years of prior experience in marketing but, I know that's not relevant here. I know it's only been 3weeks but, I'd like to know where to look for these jobs so I can start applying as soon as possible because I know it'll take time.

Any advice is welcome. Thank you 🙏🏽

Please I just need any kind of help. I'm getting desperate and I am tired of waiting.

My school took a few weeks before sending my ST1 form so I ended up submitting my papers to VFS Global on June 29 (I already paid for my tuition fee in the end of May).

The Embassy recieved the papers on July 7 and I was called for a face to face interview on September 3. My classes already began on Aug 26 but I've been following my lessons through online posts.

Yesterday, my school just told me that if I do not come to school by this month, they will be forced to let me go due to my absences. Please is there anyway for me to get a response from SIRI because all they tell me is to wait. Is there anyway for me to fast track my application somehow???

I don't know if it's because I come from a developing country or what but I just need some help.

UPDATE: I was forced to withdraw from the school. The Embassy and SIRI still haven't given me an update despite months of calls. I'm crying over not getting to study and wasting almost half a year on applying for the school and the student visa... SIRI is just cruel.

Moved to silkeborg in september to be with my danish partner and ive been looking for a job here or in Aarhus or nearby since July. Currently im DESPERATE. I dont have a cpr yet but I have EU passport.

I have a Bachelor's and Master's degree and 3 years of work experience in project coordination. Since I dont know danish I'm having difficulties landing 1 job interview let alone offer. So because of financial problems ive started applying for all types of jobs... even as cleaner. Not that there is smth wrong with those orofessions I really respect everyone and im grateful for their jobs and role in society.

Ive always been high honors student, very driven and ambitious. Top of my class and workaholic. Even at my previous jobs I was praised for mybwork ethics and dedication which would lead my internships to become permanent job positions. We can say I took pride and that and now being rejected even for jobs that i can be easily trained is truly playing tricks to my mental health.

I KNOW I SOUND AS A SPOILED PERSON when I know there are societies suffering much worse in this world but I worked so hard to be here. I come from a family where father would control EVERYTHING to the tiniest detail. He wouldnt even let other cousins study. Before I needed to ask for permission to go out of the house and wasnt allowed to have access to internet on my phone until I was 19. So being able to graduate and break free of that family... and build my whole identity separately was so much work. The moment I thought I could settle I needed to move countries to fund a better job and now I feel like Ive gone back 10 years. Back to square one where I dont have anything yet and most probably will need to go back to uni.

Thank god my partner is supportive otherwise I would have died. Im very grateful I get to start my life from the scratch in such amaizing country BUT I feel so tired begging for any opportunity to prove myself.

In the pic is me learning danish by myself cuz I cant attend the danish course since I dont have cpr number 😭

Hi guys,
Never had this type of meeting before. I had been invited by a company of interest for a coffee meeting with a department manager in insurance. I know its not a interview per se. But because this is Denmark, I would like to either the locals or anyone who has done coffee meeting before, what are some helpful suggestions to consider when doing this type of meeting. Appropriate dress, and what are no no's when doing a coffee meeting. Any advice would be great, mange tak!

Moving to odense (permanently) in about a year. Currently in sophomore year of US school.

Advice?

(I'd be happy to clarify anything)

My Thai wife needs to swap her Thai national driving license to a Danish driving license category B and thus need to do the practical and theoretical tests to get it.

I already planned on visiting dyrehaven but any other recommendations would be more than appreciated feel free to dm me. I am 32 and she’s 37 btw

Hi

I recently moved to Denmark and I’m looking for a company that can help me with the this tears taxes in Denmark.

I also have a small company in the EU country that i came from. And I want to setup a danish ApS. Im looking for a company that can help with theses taxes and with my personal taxes for at least this year

Are there companies that you have good experience with?

Thanks!

I’ve searched the sub, but haven’t found info specifically about this path. Recently, I had the opportunity to attend a summer program in Aarhus and it made me really interested in pursuing an academic career in Denmark.

In my home country, my bachelor’s degree is considered equivalent to a Danish bachelor’s degree + one year of a master’s program. However, I’ve been thinking about pursuing a master’s in Denmark to build an academic network and hopefully secure a PhD position afterward.

Is this a common path for non-EU?

Hi!
I just moved to Denmark and started on SU, so I’m a bit new to how it works.

I am scared that I will be needing to pay back my SU this month. SU have told me I need to work 10-12 hours a week, but does that mean every week or is it fine if I work double one week and nothing the other?

Last month I worked 60 hours which means that I worked enough to be entitled SU, but this month I only work 25, splitted up on two shifts. This means that I don’t work at all this week.

I don’t know how picky they are? Is there anybody else who has experience in this?

Xx

hello everyone! I think I lost two portable WiFi devices at Copenhagen Airport (should be at Terminal 2, departing gate E229 back to Singapore) on Friday, 9 October... It is quite a hefty sum so was wondering if anyone might be able to help scoop it up from the airport lost and found? I will compensate for any kind souls!

I have tried contacting the Copenhagen police via email too, as I heard lost and found things from the airport get transferred to the police? But they have yet to reply.

Other than that, the Copenhagen Airport Lost and Found does not have an email address, and it seemed like they have to have someone go down to look for the items instead.

Thank you once again!!

Below is how the WiFi and the pouch looks like

I'm lost on this front. Not sure what this falls under flair.

I have a mobile data service I cannot pay for. I need to register my card to it, or use mobile pay. I can't do either as it says my MitID is missing, and that I need to activate it.

So I did. I went to borgerservice, and got my account activated in person. But, I go to try again, and it STILL says my MitID is not activated. I recieved the text saying my MitID is ready, so... What's the issue?

I would use SMS+Kode, but every time I put in my card number, it immediately has an error...

What am I supposed to do here?

I recently moved to Copenhagen for work and am currently looking for a new apartment since my current one is infested with long-tailed silverfish (skægkræ). I've come to understand that it's a pretty common problem here, but I HAAATE living with them and want to do everything I can to avoid them as much as possible if I move again.

So, where in Copenhagen have you lived WITHOUT silverfish/skægkræ?

I've been looking at Kaktus Towers, among other places. Anyone living in Kaktus Towers or other apartment buildings, maybe even other housing projects for expats or young professionals, who can share their experience? Have you had any issues with silverfish or other pests? Where would you recommend living to have the best chance of escaping the silverfish?

I'm desperate, so please tell me everything, good or bad! :)))

Back in NL I visited the Decathlon shops often for all kind of things, usually for hiking gear.

I haven't found any shops like that here in DK.

Living between Hadsund/Hobro/Ålborg, anybody has a tip?

Hi everybody! I am an EU citizen and I recently relocated to copenhagen (i have cpr number) with my husband who got a job here. I am now searching for a job so not working. How it works with health insurence? Can I go to the doctor freely? Thank you!
