If you are applying for any position in a start-up or international company based in Germany, the EU or further afield, then it is much more beneficial to use proven and successful international formats that are quite different from the Lebenslauf format that may be required by native German Companies. When it comes to writing a successful CV for the International market, I have the experience and know-how to tailor the CV to any given role, which in turn will give you the maximum chance of getting the interview.

No matter your industry or career level, I can help you create a CV, cover letter, and ATS/AI/SEO Friendly LinkedIn profile that truly reflects your skills and achievements. With a focus on keywords, modern formats, and clear language, my goal is to help you get noticed and land more interviews.
Professional CV Writing
With 10 years hands-on experience writing results-orientated CV’s for Executives, Professionals, and Managers, I fully understand how to research, keyword and write job-winning CV’s that deliver tangible and quantifiable results.
Keyworded Cover Letters
A Cover Letter (Or what we call the 2nd CV) is now an absolute core part of any job application. Depending on the role, region and seniority of the position, a bespoke and keyworded Cover Letter can seriously increase your chances of success.
Optimized LinkedIn Profiles
Having a professionally written LinkedIn that is SEO Friendly can yield amazing results, Not only can you be found by the right headhunters and recruiters, but after you apply for a role, you have a second chance of impressing your prospective employer.
A powerful 2-page CV format that exceeds expectations!
With broad expertise writing CV’s for a diverse range of Executives, I will write, format and design your international CV with unique templates that have proven to suit a specific industry or sector. (Every Industry demands its own unique style). In general terms, I try to have each International CV about 2 pages in length with a relatively conservative approach to the design and formatting, which further ensures success when it comes to the ATS (Complicated Designs can mean bad ATS marks). Your new Executive CV will be confident, somewhat aggressive, will contain buzz words and keywords, a targeted profile section and other relevant content that can clearly communicate everything that is positive and relevant to the role.
Looking for work as an Expat in Berlin 2026?
Hiring a Professional CV Writing Service is the perfect Solution!
As someone that has lived, worked and traveled across Germany for many years, I am always amused at how Expats and International jobseekers try to utilise the Lebenslauf Format (The Native German Resume Format) in order to gain employment in Berlin, Hamburg and across Germany. Worse still is the Europass format which was obviously created by somebody in the inner echelons of the confused and idea/allergic EU labyrinth. Stay away from both of these badly thought-out CV Writing formats, especially if your German language skills are not perfect. The best suggestion for a native English-language speaker is to be authentic, clear in your communication and honest about both your language skills and your knowledge of the German market. Use a 2-page format with an introduction, skills and notable achievements section. Presume at all times that the reader speaks excellent English, or in most cases that the HR Manager or Recruiter is actually a native English speaker themselves. This will almost certainly be true when targeting some of the many start-up scenes across Germany in Berlin Mitte, Munich, Hamburg and other major cities.
