The Premise
Malta runs at close to full employment, and two in five workers on the island come from abroad. This session shows German employers which parts of their hiring standards win in Malta, which parts quietly cost them candidates, and what to do when the market cannot supply the perfect CV.
Fifteen minutes, followed by open round table discussion.
Session Agenda
The Market in Five Numbers
Where Malta's talent actually sits, who is bidding for it, and why the candidate you want already has a job.
German Standards, Island Rules
Which parts of a German hiring process transfer to Malta, which quietly kill your pipeline, and what to rebuild.
Building the Shortlist
How local networks and international pipelines combine when a role needs a specific technical or cultural fit.
Permits on a Project Plan
EU and third-country hiring without stalling the timeline: the fast tracks, the 2025 rules, and the eight-week mistakes.
Winning the Candidate, and Closing the Gap
How a German employer beats iGaming money for the same shortlist, and what to do when the perfect CV doesn't exist: hire at 90%, train the rest.
