1. Agriculture: Some Jews were permitted to work in agriculture, particularly in remote rural areas or on Jewish-owned farms.
2. Unskilled Labor: Jews were sometimes allowed to engage in unskilled or menial labor in various industries, although their opportunities were limited compared to non-Jewish workers.
3. Certain Professions: A small number of Jews were able to continue working in specific professions, such as medicine, dentistry, and law, but they faced many restrictions and could only serve Jewish clients.
4. Domestic Service: Some Jews found employment as domestic workers in Jewish households or as housekeepers, cooks, or nannies.
5. Entertainment Industry: A few Jews were able to work in the entertainment industry, primarily as musicians, actors, or theater performers.
However, it's essential to note that Jews were increasingly excluded from most professions and jobs as Nazi policies became more aggressive. They were forced out of civil service, education, media, banking, and many other fields. By 1939, the vast majority of Jews in Germany were either unemployed or working in low-paying, precarious jobs with limited opportunities for advancement. Their economic situation deteriorated significantly due to the discriminatory measures imposed by the Nazi regime.
