Lett SDOEIT is the official BBC of Germany. This means the language used on all programmes is German, and you are expected to speak German throughout your time working here. You will need to master this language, as the main characters in some episodes speak entirely in English, and it can be difficult to make it through an episode if you have not learnt German. If you are reading this video, you must have at least a rudimentary knowledge of German, because the people you interact with (the reporters, presenters and guests) will all have either English or some variation on English. I remember my first encounter with German whilst doing an assignment for BBC Radio, and I was very intimidated by the sheer number of words I had to learn, but I learned them and they were easy to understand and I got the job done, thanks to a very friendly British employee who put me in touch with native speakers and taught me how to say the most basic phrases and proper greetings in German..
