Career Skills Training

We help you with your application; we check your CV; and we advise you on the next steps. We also run seminars and workshops for international students in English to learn about the application process in Germany, find out what the Do's and Don'ts for writing applications in Germany are, and practice job interview skills.

If you would like to have your CV checked and get some career advice, you can make an appointment for a CV drop-in session where our career adviser will give you feedback on your application documents and answer all your questions about working in Germany. More information on CV drop-in sessions and upcoming workshops can be found here.

If you want to improve your German language skills, you can take our self-paced online course "How to apply for jobs in Germany". This course will help you learn some useful language for your job search in Germany and show you how to write an application. It is open to all international students and can be accessed via OPAL, the university's elearning portal. Simply follow the link and log in with your university credentials:
