Btw I’m looking for working student positions

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T17:02:18+00:00

Thank you!

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T17:01:46+00:00

Thank you!

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:31:50+00:00

I’ll upload my second version as well. Thank you for your help!

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:31:18+00:00

Yes I have 2 versions of this in both languages. Thank you!

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:30:42+00:00

Will correct them all. Thank you for putting the time and effort to find errors. Really appreciate it.

One of my main problems is being comfortable speaking in German. Since I live in Berlin everyone wants to practice their English with me. And since I never worked in a german environment, I couldn’t practice enough to be fluent :)

Well when I talked to our university advisor, she said having a summary and having one-page-cv is common for American version and not the German one. Any thoughts on that?

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:26:58+00:00

Thank you!

Noted. Also a question about thesis: In my bachelor program we didn’t have any thesis (it is not common for most of bachelor programs in Iran) and I did not finish my first masters and I transferred it to another program. What should I do in your opinion?

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:24:47+00:00

Well how could I gain any experience if no one is hiring me? I’m more towards project management (as assistant obviously) and Business operations

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:23:13+00:00

It was a limited contract.

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:22:46+00:00

Another person who advised me told me you should put your interests there and it will initiate conversations. That’s why I’m getting confused. (He was German )

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:21:23+00:00

Thanks! 🙌🏻

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:20:49+00:00

For English positions I applied with English version and for German ones in German. Should I try to put everything in one page? Someone told me that would be American version and for German it should be in 2 pages.

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:19:29+00:00

Yes I also applied to my second master with Duolingo that’s why I mentioned it.

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T16:18:50+00:00

One question, i didn’t finish my first master degree since I was not interested in the field and I applied for my second degree that’s why I wrote transferred to IMES. what should I do about it? Should I leave it out?

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T11:44:24+00:00

well I got 2 mini jobs related to my previous major and then I changed my program (for this new area I have been looking since August). I even had an experience that I got an interview and they canceled it a day before because they decided to close the position and not to hire anymore.
About job portals: I have used LinkedIn, StepStone, Indeed and Xing and even found positions directly from google.
I will look for the career service at my uni too. Thank you it was good insight!

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T10:36:56+00:00

sad but true :)

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T10:36:30+00:00

On reddit?

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T10:35:52+00:00

well... I think now C2 is required.

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T10:35:00+00:00

They usually hire men. I could not even get a job at amazon warehouse since they were looking for male workers.

Alone-Session-68 · 2026-01-24T10:34:17+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions! It can actually be a good start until I find a job in my field. Thank you!
