How was Sparkup November?
Another fine Spark-up! Based on the number of questions people had for Robert from LLO, you could schedule this topic of renters' rights every year. Next time I rent I will be smarter about it, that's for sure! Thanks for the great information. |

Dear Dagmar,
The event was truelly helpful and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for organizing such events in order to help all foreigners living and trying to work in Denmark.
Your meetings cover so many aspects. They all make an excellent guide.
I will for sure reccommend your meetings to people I know.
Also a good point - you also make people very welcome by offering food and drinks and they have this time for networking, which is also important.
I look forward to the Taler dansk event.
Kind regards
Lenka |

Getting a hair cut
Hej,
sadly I cannot provide you a name nor a recommendation, but I like to share what I am doing to avoid hair cut costs.
Wearing my hair short since many years I use now a hair trimmer - costs are down to electricity and there is no hassle to get an appointment. And yes, the barber speaks my native language, also. 
Sorry, this is only for people wearing their hair short - yet an option to consider.
Hilsen
Bernd C. |

Help with bachelor project
Due to unfortunate situations I lost my contact company with my Bachelor project so now I have to find some other solution in order to finish it. As I am writing about retention of international graduates around Copenhagen areaI thought of starting a forum topic here in worktrotter. I would like to get some information on how some foreign graduates especially those who graduated in Denmark found jobs? So if anyone had the same experience then please contact me or maybe just have an idea about it.
My e-mail is : tanya_pedersen83@yahoo.dk
Kind regards,

Topic:
Problems with the landlord?
It seems that many expats experience problems with their landlord either during or at the end of their tennancy and I have heard of some who had to pay a large amount of money for renovating the appartment. It seems that some also find out, that they are paying a far too large amount of rent.
To avoid such problems, the next Sparkup event on Nov 11 will deal with the topic "Rented housing". We'll have Robert Nedergaard from LLO, the tennants country rganisation, who will explain laws and regulations, give advice and answer many of your questions.
Please sign up for the event via http://www.worktrotter.dk/events/details/33-sparkup11.html
See you there,
Dagmar |

Hi Dagmar
you could consider inviting someone to help expats understand the steps in the process of
1. renting a house/apartment
2. buying a house/apartment - different types of apartments/houses avialable, agencies, websites for search, approval for foreigner wonership, bank loan process, loaning agencies, credit arrangements etc.
3. using a car - buying, leasing, weekend cards, car for hire etc. |

Topic:
Program for female jobseekers
Dear Worktrotters,
here is a program we've been asked to share with you. It can help some of you to get into the Danish jobmarket.
Kvinder på vej (Ladies on their way)
This project has ben set up for non-Danish women, who want to find work and as a means of better integration.
It includes among other aspects: Danish lessons, writing CVs and job applications and an 8 week internship in a company. This can get you really well prepared and you'll get "the foot in the door".
It runs for 24 weeks, daily from 8:30-14:00. The first run starts in Oct 2009. So, hurry up.
Those of you who can't make it they have chances to get into it in January 2010, August 2010, January 2011, August 2011.
Of course there are some prereqs:
- you must not receive support from the Danish state it whatever form (S.U., kontanthjælp or dagpenge)
- your Danish must be on the level that you can follow the program. Something like module 4. But the program includes intensive Danish, so it gives a good chance to improve it.
If you are interested, please get in touch with
Susanne Legêne
Center for Beskæftigelse, sprog og Integration (CBSI)
Hejrevej 10, 2400 Kbh. NV, Tel. 26 77 02 71
See details about the program (in Danish).
Good luck,
Dagmar

Dear Worktrotters,
thanks for joing. We had 50 people learning about how to use LinkedIn and about Leading in Denmark. I was very impressed with Alex' presentation about LinkedIN and all the things you can do with it. Can't wait to improve my profile and get rolling. You can download Alex' presentation from: http://www.startupdenmark.dk/resources/networks. Scroll to the button. If the direct link doesn't work here's how you can find it:
http://www.startupdenmark.dk -> click Resources -> click Networks
Scroll to the bottom.
Please share your views on how you liked the meeting and what it gave you. This will motivate many more to join the Sparkups and the other Worktrotter events and get great benefit for their life in Dk.
See you next time,
Dagmar
