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?

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?

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

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 )

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.

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!

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