Does basic German help in corporate jobs?
I’m thinking about moving to Switzerland in about 2 years. I live in the UK and I’m an EU Citizen. I speak fluent English and I work in finance, mostly in Tech companies.
Surely I can’t become fluent in German in 2 years, my current level is 0. For a professional level, I would rely on my English.
Question: If I start to study now, and learn at least a basic to intermediary level of German, would this help me land my first job? If I move I want to become fluent in German but I believe the fluency will only come once I live in the country.
Thanks
