Karl-Josef Laumann shares career journey in Düsseldorf
During a press conference regarding vocational orientation in Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia Labor Minister Karl-Josef Laumann shared details about his unconventional path to office. The 69-year-old CDU politician described growing up on a farm in Riesenbeck, Münsterland, and eventually training as a mechanical fitter in the agricultural machinery industry.
Laumann noted that at age 15, he secured his apprenticeship by visiting a business directly on his bicycle rather than through a formal application process. He also reflected on the era in which he grew up, noting that local pastors often assisted children in finding apprenticeships after leaving school.
