Online checking service for English-language applications

When you apply for internships or jobs in anglophone countries, the two most important documents are the cover letter and the CV/résumé. There are some major formal differences compared to German applications.
The Career Service offers students, doctoral candidates and graduates an online checking service for English-language application documents.

Please note we do not offer to prepare your application for you, we can only provide advice on improving your application. In our review we will check whether you have observed all formalities and that the language used is correct. We will also check whether both the formal and logical structure are in line with the appropriate conventions. We will give you feedback and, if required, point out what still needs improving. You can then give us your new version for another review.

Please send us both documents (cover letter, CV) as Word documents to career-service@fau.de. If you are responding to a specific job advertisement, please include this too. We can only check applications via e-mail.
The processing time is one week on average.
