How can I plan my return to work properly?

A successful re-entry requires good preparation and planning, even if you are returning to a familiar job.

Tips for your planning:

• Refresh your specialist knowledge: Attend courses, seminars or internships to acquire up-to-date knowledge.
• Realistically assess your work profile: Show employers your strengths and experience.
• Make motivation and commitment visible: Show that you have taken active steps, e.g. continuing education, further training or internship.
• Analyze your prospects: Think about which roles and industries are exciting for you and plan your return specifically.
• Use your professional experience: The knowledge and experience you have already gained remains a clear advantage.

This will increase your chances of a successful re-entry and find suitable new career prospects.
