Our Services:

Resume / CV Translation: English into German

A CV or Resume (German: Lebenslauf) is the first and most important decision criterion, when applying for a position in a German-speaking country. A good CV is a door opener and should be treated like one. A simple translation from English into German is often not enough to be spot-on. German CVs are structural and contentual different from English CVs. Hence, EKM offers a CV copywriting service that takes care of all of the little things to get you through the door.

Cover Letter Translation: English into German

A matching cover letter (German: Anschreiben) is always required when applying in Germany, Austria or Switzerland.

EKM offers translation services for English – German cover letter translations as well as copywriting services for individual cover letters.
