Your CV will provide information on the level of performance to be expected from you and whether you can be a good fit for upcoming vacancies. The most common way to document this is through highlighting your professional experience and academic achievements, but also through disclosing internships or periods spent abroad. Indeed, it could even occu that your CV and potential impresses a company so much that they want to bring you on board even if there is currently no job vacancy at all. And that’s the benefit of sending us a speculative application. So why hesitate?
Why is the job you’re applying to the right one for you?
Writing a spontaneous application – if you do it right – can be hard work. Particularly so, if you have become oblivious to your own achievements and experiences. Restructuring your CV can help you to flesh out your strengths (and weaknesses). Use the process to remind yourself of all the qualifications you have acquired and – what is more– of the values, motives, and objectives that led you to where you are today.
Cover letter, CV, etc.
What to include in a written application
You probably already know all this. Nevertheless, we will summarise it briefly for you. In Switzerland, a personal application should include a cover letter, a CV, reference letters from former employers, educational diplomas, and other related certificates. Very important: Use the cover letter to explain why a company needs you in particular. Use the data from your CV only if it really fits in with your reasoning. The human resources expert will be able to read all the rest themselves. Be memorable and make your letter stand out.
Be on-point. Prioritize easiness-to-read and user-friendliness. Be comprehensive in your CV and pay attention to chronology. Nevertheless, even if you are 50 years old, avoid using more than two pages. If you want to go into more detail about your motives, use a special “third page”.
Stick to verifiable and relevant information. And finally, when you’re done, let someone who is not afraid to criticise you have a look at it.
