I have recently returned from Germany working for the Army. The job was great and conditions of service were also very good. HOWEVER you must ensure that you sign up to a good agency. I had the unfortunate experience of working for Military Medical Personell ( MMP). I found the experience with the agency very frustrating! I may of been unlucky in that I am self employed and found that MMP could not pay me direct and had little control over a third party whom paid me. I have since changed agencies and find it much better. Please try to get all details from the agency in writing prior to accepting any post in Germany.
