Time: 9:00am - 4:30pm

This workshop examines the best way to write a CV in English. The course will help you write an impactful personal statement and set out how to best summarise your education and skills, experience and interests.

We will clearly define what you should and should not include on a CV, identify keywords for your particular needs and strong vocabulary to express yourself powerfully. We define methods to tailor your CV, and will look at how to convert your German CV for the international market, whether that be an American-style resume or a British-style CV.

We will illustrate how to make your CV attractive and eye-catching and finally consider references and letters of recommendation.
