This comprehensive application is called a Vollständige Bewerbung. Some positions may require an Aussagefähige Bewerbung, which also include information specific to the position like patents held, publications, or samples from a work portfolio.
As applying for a position that does not require German, you should always submit your cover letter and CV in German. Get a friend or a professional to help you with your written application. Wait a week or two after sending an application, then call to check is has been received.
our Curriculum vitae - Lebenslauf
A German CV is often longer than in other countries, but should not exceed two pages. There are some peculiarities to bear in mind, we have listed some of the most important points you should consider below
Heading:
write CV by putting headings as
Personal details ( Persönliche Daten) : This is the first part of the CV. It should contain your name, address, telephone numbers your place/country of birth , and e-mail address. You should also include your date and place of birth, marital status and number of children. You need to state your age or your CV will be considered incomplete.
Order:
CVs. , should be in tabular form with different subsections for work experience, education and language skills but it was written in chronological order before. Information should be placed in reverse chronological order, most recent first. For dates, you don't need to include the day, but should put the month.
Education ( Ausbildung):
Start with university (Studium) if appropriate but You may start in reverse order also. You should include all titles, university name(s), cities, dates of study, final grade average, honors and experience studying abroad. Then list secondary/high school studies ( Schulausbildung). You should always get some information on what would be an equivalent degree in Germany and state it, as many employers may not understand foreign degrees.
Professional Experience ( Berufserfahrung):
Company name, sector, city and the position(s) you held. Specify you achievements in every job, as this will be an important factor for your future employer.
Language skills ( Sprachkenntnisse):
Specify what laguages you can speak very well,well or can understand
If you are tested in an interview and you ability doesn't correspond with your CV you probably will not get the job as this will be surely tested in interview..
Computer Skill and Courses:
Computer skills: programs, applications, word processing, spreadsheets, databases etc. Don't put "Internet Browsing" meaning you know how to use a Internet browser and e-mail, as this is not a differentiating ability
Hobbies:
Your personal hobbies are just as important as your professional information, since they give some impression about you as a person. Most employers like "active" hobbies (such as sport and music) or social engagements. Watching TV or chatting with friends is not considered to be a hobby and will make you appear like a "couch potato".
Supplementary Information : information other than specified above , you may submit in your CV. e.g. your visa expiry Date and about your residing period in German etc.
I hope this will help you while applying for a job. if you are not a professional CV writer ,Consult some local expert also while writting your CV.
