"Hartz and cordial": Carsten from Rostock has been unemployed for ten years now.

He now wants to change that – and experiences a big faux pas!

There is a problem district in the Hanseatic city of Rostock: the Groß Klein district.

For many, Rostock is the perfect holiday destination on the Baltic Sea - but for the residents of the blocks in Groß Klein, the reality of life often looks very different.

Since 2020, the social documentary "Hartz und cordial" has been accompanying the residents of Rostock, who struggle with prejudice, money worries and strokes of fate in their everyday lives.

MANNHEIM24 reports on this.

"Hartz and cordial": Carsten has been unemployed for ten years - and dares to go to an interview again

In the current episode, resident Carsten reports on his many years of unemployment.

The 42-year-old "Hartz und cordial" protagonist was exposed to a lot of severity and violence in his childhood and suffered a lot from it.

The father of four has been unemployed for over 10 years.

But that could change in the 9th episode of "Hartz und Herzen".

"I have an interview today.

Let's see if that works, if that doesn't work, then we'll keep looking," reveals Carsten in the social documentary.

He last signed an employment contract in 2005/2006.

In the meantime, he has kept his head above water with internships – but a permanent employment relationship has not materialized.

"Hartz and warm": Carsten's son has had a difficult operation - he wants to be there for his offspring

While many applicants' knees tremble before such an appointment, Carsten takes it easy: "I'm not excited, it's a day like any other," the 42-year-old continues.

He got the job opportunity through an acquaintance who had already introduced him to the company.

"He also said right away that I had been unemployed for a long time - he immediately played with open cards," reveals Carsten at RTLZWEI.

Playing with open cards – that's also what the father of four children has in mind for the job interview.

Because in addition to his many years of unemployment, there is something else that his future employer should know.

Since his son Yusei had his brain tumor removed eight months ago, Carsten always wants to be there for his son quickly.

"Hartz and warm" from Rostock: Carsten drives to the job interview - and is disappointed

Jenny and Carsten from Rostock have separated after ten years of relationship and four children.

Nevertheless, there is no war of roses among the "Hartz und cordial" actors.

Carsten lovingly takes care of his son - and would like to be available for him at any time.

"Most employers will then say - okay, yes, bye then," suspects the 42-year-old.

His application trip takes the Rostocker to Warnemünde, 7 km away.

The job interview in the neighboring town took an unexpected turn: "The interview was so brilliant that it didn't even take place," reveals Carsten in "Hartz and cordial - day by day Rostock Groß Klein".

"Hartz and heartily": wasted the day - Carsten missed the job interview

The job interview turns out to be a faux pas: Carsten got the wrong day and noted the wrong date in his calendar.

"I had the job interview yesterday and not today," says the Rostocker with a smile about his talent for planning.

He lost a day and wrote down the wrong date.

Despite his appointment blunder, Carsten gets another chance to introduce himself to the company.

Instead of going home angrily, the 42-year-old can laugh heartily about missing his appointment.
