Apply online for an employer service with a job offer

    If you are looking for personnel for your company, you can commission the Employer Service of the Federal Employment Agency in your region with the search.

    Description

    Do you want to fill vacancies and recruit the workers and specialists you need, but don't want to look for suitable people on your own? The Employer Service of the Federal Employment Agency (BA) offers you its services for this purpose.

    You can also use this service online and therefore completely electronically. All you have to do is create a job offer online on the "arbeitsagentur.de" portal and place an order for placement. This requires the access data for your user account on the arbeitsagentur.de portal. The access data can be requested either by telephone or via the contact form in your responsible employer service. Once you have registered individually, you can take advantage of further benefits of the BA's online services, for example you can contact potential applicants.

    Alternatively, you can also submit the job offer to the relevant Employer Service via the online job registration form. You do not need any access data for this.

    You will then be assigned a personal contact person at the relevant employer service. Within 48 hours, this person will coordinate the next steps in the search for applicants, the pre-selection of applicant proposals and the online collaboration with you.
