Ever wondered what it's like to design luxurious yachts in Germany? Our latest interview with Viktor Kazakov, an engineer at Abeking & Rasmussen, dives into his inspiring journey from Ukraine to Germany, sharing insights into his work on prestigious yacht projects, adapting to a new culture, and overcoming the language barrier.

We want to celebrate the leap of faith our professionals take when trusting us to come to the Netherlands and Germany for a new opportunity. A leap of faith is exactly what brought the two protagonists of our success story Mircea Vartan and Simona Vartan to Hamburg, Germany. This will be a two part story so stay tuned for the continuation!

Working in another country sounds exciting. And often, it is. A strong project, a different setting, maybe a role that suits you better than the one you have now. From a distance, it can look like a fairly simple next step. And sometimes it is. But usually, there is a bit more to it than the role alone. For most engineers, the real question is whether the whole thing fits once normal life begins. The work itself, the team, the language people actually use, the travel, the weekly rhythm. That is usually the point where an idea starts to feel either right or not quite right.
