More refugees find jobs in Germany, integration going 'pretty well'

The number of employed migrants surged by more than 100,000 to 306,574 in May, data from the Labour Office showed.

A growing number of migrants are finding jobs in Germany, according to data released on Tuesday that will give heart to supporters of Chancellor Angela Merkel's decision to let in hundreds of thousands of war refugees since 2015.

Figures last week also showed that German companies have managed to attract more apprentices to on-the-job training schemes due to a surge in applications from asylum seekers from Afghanistan and Syria.
