Hello everyone. Firstly, I’d like to thank @QuincyLarson and all people who made this project, you’ve made this world literally a better place and I’d like to congratulate everyone on the 10th anniversary. I’m writing here because I believe that FCC isn’t just a group of people around the world who learn programming, but it’s also a community where people help each other. And now I need to tell you about my situation.
Shortly about me:
-
University: the Chinese language,also studied in the university in China, Harbin, 6 months, worked in the field, then started working in a position, where I didn’t need the language, so I haven’t spoken for a while. I’ve got all diplomas with me.
-
Programming skills:
Frontend self-taught(HTML,CSS,JS,React,Redux,Sass,GIT,Figma). -
Foreign languages:
English(B2, I can speak at this level)
German(B1, passed the DTZ Test, from A1 to B1 in Germany within 7 months)
Chinese(I need to revise my knowledge, haven’t spoken for a while)

I wouldn’t ask for that but I haven’t got anybody to ask for because I’m new here. I came from Russia to Germany because the military came to my house and wanted to send me to the war which is currently going in Ukraine.
I understand what is really going on, because I’ve got several friends in Ukraine. I had to leave the country and now I’m in Germany(Cologne). I asked for asylum here,but the government told me, that yes, we believe your evidences and your story, but we don’t grant asylums to those who refused to fight. So they rejected my asylum request and I had to hire a lawyer, the case is still in the court.
And now I’m in a situtation where I feel like I’m in a trap, the only option for me to not come back is to find a proper job. And you see, coming back isn’t an option for me, one can go to prison, but the one can’t refuse to fight.
And this is a place for refugees where I live now, the conditions are really harsh, 3 people in one tiny room, even now I’m writing from a local library where I usually study.
What they do to those who refuse to fight

I was trying to find a job here, but there are 2 options: I meet requirements, but don’t speak enough German(they need B2 level and I don’t have enough money to complete it). The 2nd option is that there’s a lot of positions and one doesn’t need German, but they are for Middle and Seniors.
So, I just want to ask maybe you know someone in a company here(Nord-Rhein Westfalia, for now they allow me to work only in this federal land) who I can talk to about the job. You see, I understand that I’m a stanger on the Internet and you don’t know what I’m capable of.
But I’ve got free time and for example, I can even start with an internship so I can do some tasks or learn new technologies according to your company’s stack(e.g. you need Angular or even Backend, I’ll do that), I’ll just need the feedback from experienced people when I do this.
And then your company will be able to get a highly motivated employee with an interest in programming(Frontend and Backend) and learning foreign languages.
Thank you.
