Kerala is slowly becoming an old age home since newer generations have migrated to developed countries.

[ragas]

He is saying the cliche, borrowed answer that German friends will stay forever once you have them. As if he has experienced it forever. Some Germans are cold and lack any emotions. While others are polite and diplomatic. He is just being politically correct and diplomatic here.

[eyewaves...]

Interesting view points and experiences...

[tkuanay]

This man is comparing a developed nation and developing nation. Not apple to apple. If money is the motto, there is wider world and you have all justifications.

[DhanyaKrishnan]

Jo! Youtube matched the video for my recommendation. Brilliant Recommendation System ! :)

[anilgawande]

Informative video. Thanks for sharing your experience. Please keep creating it. Nice interview.

[sateeshprathapani]

You find all kinds of people here friendly, unpredictable and also people keeping Grudge here. Cannot be generalized!

[gouthamraj]

He must have got citizenship for the perks as a citizen. In healthcare, education and employment.

[NeonSoso]

Very insightful video, thanks for this. I really appreciate it.

[yassirkhay]

Nice tips, despitee the background noise in the Cafe!

[venkateswarim]

Kerala people anyways look for outside oppurtunity. More than 90% work outside of their state. That's a cultural norm there. And for Indians here working in offshore, indian onsite is worse and presure us to do extra and all. And schedule calls in their own time. And german people in onsite have clear goals nd easy to work.

[கோபிசுதாகர்]

How has he been staying in germany for 11 years if he came to europe in 2015? Something doesnt add up

[overlord]

Although germen work culture is great but in india its not like if dont do something you are fired. He haven't worked much so offcourse he dont know about indian work culture. Yes its lot of pressure and not so work life balance like germany.

[chetanborade]

Sad to here that people go abroad and still practice cast system.
Still people say India does not need reservation.

[vvvaidyanathan]

I have worked in Germany and other parts of the world. In India we have several challenges unlike Germany, such as issues with traffic, public transportation, weather etc. German work style appears relaxed and at times way too slow to comprehend. In India managers have to handle team members who come from different parts of the country, speak different languages, from varied backgrounds, religious beliefs and economic situations. I believe that working and building teams in India is far more challenging and rewarding than in developed economies.

32:07 it's "Ausbildung", not house building(subtitle error).

[jayasreenair]

Subtitling is wrong sometimes, for Ausbildung it said house boiling for nurses

[sarathtech]

Really enjoyed the video. He seems quite smart, practical and very aware of what he wants in life. Interesting take and perspectives on a few things. Good direct questions. Keep going. Would love to hear from more people!

p.s: I know you guys already try to do it but if possible, please keep including social media links of the interviewee and any useful links/resources they want to share to us. Thanks.

[vigneshganesan]

Germans follow all their rules, but in India we don't. This is key difference. If we Indians start doing that then our country can do so much better.
