Guides
Practical guides to applying for jobs in Germany — useful whether or not you use gupp.
How to write a German CV (Lebenslauf)
What belongs in it, what stopped belonging years ago, and the five differences from a British or American CV that quietly cost people interviews.
The German cover letter (Anschreiben)
Why it carries more weight here than in most countries, how it is structured, how to state salary expectations, and what to leave out.
Applying again after a long break
Parental leave, caring for a relative, illness or unemployment: what has changed about applying, how to explain a gap, and where to start.
Two further guides exist in German only for now: tailoring an application to the job ad and the German-market version of the CV guide.
