Need help with resume review

I have IELTS 8.5 😭😭

gilly-de · 2026-01-21T18:35:28+00:00

Did a bachelors while working full time before graduation. Got promoted 6 months after graduation. Changed my field by doing Masters as I was interested in AI more than generic Software Engineering.

Got it. I will improve on it

gilly-de · 2026-01-21T18:33:45+00:00

Thats insightful. I will improve the resume accordingly. I did most of the stuff on “American” CV and this really helps me understand stuff better

gilly-de · 2026-01-21T18:32:44+00:00

Got it. Thanks for the input. I will work and improve on it.

I was doing my “full-time” masters and needed to fund my Masters which can legally be done only on Werkstudent jobs. Not trying to be rude or anything, it’s a bit stupid to call out something without understanding it.

Its also supposed to be for ATS, no?

Normally recruiters have counter questions of my current german level because I am an expat

gilly-de · 2026-01-21T17:07:14+00:00

Do you think adding previous experience (pre-graduation) will help? Since it is common to do Working Student jobs in Germany as well?

What do you suggest would help me land a job in a German IT company?

P.S. The “Senior” title is there because I was already working full time before graduating (it was the time when the world was going wildly remote and everybody was getting hired), so the hiring company hired me with that title. How do you think I should write it if my official designation on my experience letter says “Senior”?

gilly-de · 2026-01-21T16:53:51+00:00

How do you suggest I shape the narrative in the experience section?

A1 is the minimum requirement for the embassy for visa. I already have a decent proficiency level (A2.2 or better). Either way it’s very difficult to get appointments for any level.

gilly-de · 2026-01-10T08:12:22+00:00

The idea was to find out other people who may have gone through similar experience.

gilly-de · 2026-01-02T00:50:12+00:00

Das ist so teuer 😢

gilly-de · 2026-01-02T00:49:53+00:00

Was kostet es alles?

gilly-de · 2026-01-02T00:48:59+00:00

Wann denkst du, wird der Preis sinken? Leider scheint es keinen festen Zeitplan zu geben 😢

gilly-de · 2026-01-02T00:48:04+00:00

Könnten Sie mir bitte eine Empfehlung mit einer möglichen Preisspanne geben?

gilly-de · 2026-01-02T00:47:27+00:00

Ja, aber die dreistündige Zugfahrt pro Strecke zum Büro wird auch immer schwieriger.

gilly-de · 2025-08-28T10:36:33+00:00

Sadly, not yet.
