Comment/Description

Would you like to apply for an internship or a full-time position in Germany but feel unsure about how applications are structured here and what employers expect? Do you wonder how to present your qualifications and previous experiences convincingly in your CV and cover letter? Do you have questions about the application
process or your documents and would like to discuss them with an expert?

Then this workshop is just right for you! The speaker Julia Barden (www.juliabarden.com), is a psychologist with professional experience in the HR departments of companies such as Deutsche Bahn and Commerzbank. She supports international students and professionals in entering the German job market and is the author of the book “Erfolgreich bewerben” (“Successful Job Applications”).

In this online workshop, the following topics will be covered:

• Strategies for job searching in Germany
• How to analyze and understand German job advertisements
• Creating a modern CV in the German style
• Writing a convincing cover letter
• Optimizing your LinkedIn profile

What makes this workshop special: theory is followed directly by practice! You will choose a suitable job posting, analyze it step by step, and draft (in bullet points) your cover letter and CV. There will also be plenty of time for individual questions. All participants will additionally receive free access to Julia’s Udemy video course “Get Your Dream Job in Germany” so you can review and deepen the workshop content at your own pace afterward.

The workshop is both open for international and German students!

The language of this event is English. You will receive the link to the online event a few days before.

This event takes place within the framework of the FIT-Programme which is funded by the DAAD with financial resources from the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR).
