Application document reviews in small groups

We will give you feedback on your cover letter, CV, and the vacancies you have chosen and discuss a few examples together. Afterwards, we review your personal documents in a small group of about 3 participants and 1 Career Center employee. You receive personal feedback on your cover letter and CV, and we consider your documents from the point of view of a prospective employer. For appointments and the online registration form, go to “Application document reviews in small group.”

Job interviews and presenting yourself

Workshop: "Stellen Sie sich vor" 

We help you present yourself clearly and convincingly to prospective employers. Practical self-presentation exercises teach you how to make a good impression and explain why you are the best pick for your chosen vacancy. This allows prospective employers to make a well-considered decision to hire you or recommend you to others. For appointments and the online registration form, go to “Group advice on job interviews and presenting yourself.” This Workshop takes place in german!
