@MKS Fernando Your job no longer has to be related to your field. But cleaning in a cleaning company is not a skilled job. I do not think you can get a skilled worker visa for this type of work: https://handbookgermany.de/en/visa-skilled-workers#faq_1499 Here is all about finding a job in Germany: https://handbookgermany.de/en/jobsearch-and-application#faq_108 Let me know if you have any further questions.
