Essential Information about the B2 Beruf Reading Section of the German Exam

The reading comprehension section of the B2 Beruf exam is an integral part of the written language test for job-related German at the B2 level. It assesses how well candidates understand professional texts and extract relevant information. This exam targets individuals who aim to enter the German-speaking job market or need to officially certify their language skills—for example, for employment, training, or recognition procedures abroad.

What is the purpose of this exam?

The goal of the reading tasks is to simulate real workplace situations in a linguistic context. Those preparing for the B2 Beruf exam learn to analyze internal emails, workplace notices, technical texts, or instructions. The test trains the ability to extract relevant content effectively—an essential skill in professional environments.

Advantages and possible challenges

One of the biggest advantages of this test section is its practical orientation. It exposes candidates to authentic texts from the working world. This is especially helpful for learners focusing not just on general German but also on professional demands. At the same time, the linguistic complexity and time pressure can be challenging—making targeted preparation essential.

How is the reading section structured?

Typically, the test includes three to four task blocks containing various types of professional texts, such as:

  • information sheets or safety instructions
  • emails or internal memos
  • extracts from manuals or employment contracts
  • statistics, tables, and process charts

Each task includes several statements or questions linked to the text. The goal is to identify relevant information and match it logically.

How long does this part take?

The entire reading section usually takes 60 to 75 minutes. The exact duration depends on the exam format and provider. Tasks must be completed independently under exam conditions—without any aids.

How is it assessed?

The answers are centrally evaluated using an official answer key. One point is awarded per correct answer. Some questions focus on details or implicit information, requiring special attention. The reading score contributes to the overall result of the B2 Beruf exam. Generally, a score of at least 60 percent is required to pass this section.
