I will write your german CV and cover letter for dach applications
About this Gig
A US or UK resume sent to a German-speaking employer usually gets filtered out before a human reads it. The conventions here are genuinely different, and none of them are optional.
What is different:
- Reverse chronological, with no unexplained gaps
- Factual tone: achievements stated, not sold
- A cover letter of exactly one page, structured, never opening with "I am excited to apply"
- Formal closing conventions that signal you know how things work here
What you get:
- Your CV rebuilt in the expected structure
- A cover letter tailored to the specific posting
- A short note on what recruiters here check first
- A clean, editable file
I do not invent qualifications, degrees or dates. Everything in the document comes from you. A CV that overstates gets found out at the interview, and in some professions the consequences go beyond an awkward conversation.
Send me your current CV and the job posting before ordering and I will tell you honestly whether the application has a realistic chance.

FAQ
Can you just translate my existing resume?
I rewrite it in the expected structure. A straight translation keeps the original format, and the format is the actual problem - that is what gets the application filtered out before anyone reads the content.
Can you add skills or qualifications I do not have yet?
Only honestly framed - "in progress" or "basic knowledge". I will not list a degree, certificate or language level you do not hold. It gets checked, and for regulated professions it is a serious problem, not just an embarrassing one.
Germany, Austria or Switzerland - does it matter?
Yes, in small but noticeable ways: some wording, spelling conventions and expectations around the photo differ. Tell me the country and I adjust. If you are applying in several, I will say which version works everywhere.
