Awesome news, Ben. Which city is it in? I spent a fair amount of time in Frankfurt and traveled around a bit when I worked for a German company and really enjoyed my time there.

Never studied German, but I've used most of those resources for other languages and generally recommend them all. Any chance the company will either provide or reimburse f2f lessons?

And... from the previous post it's Berlin. That should teach me to not click links!

Ja, ich werde nach Berlin gehen. Yes, they do provide a personal development budget as a perk which would include language instruction, but it (naturally) wouldn't apply to any expenses incurred before my employment begins. I do plan to take advantage after that point, provided I get there.

Everyone I've spoken to about this move who has spent any time in Germany has had a similarly positive report. I'm excited to experience it first-hand.
