Can I work while on the Opportunity Card?

Yes, part-time: up to 20 hours a week on average, in any job, not only in your field. On top of that you can do trial work of up to two weeks at a time with an employer, which must be qualified work, lead to training, or be part of a recognition measure. Full-time work needs the switch to a Blue Card or Skilled Worker permit once you have the offer. Many people use the 20 hours to cover the blocked-account gap while they interview.
