CV for students in D/A/CH

The cover letter is equally important as the CV to secure an interview. A strategically tailored letter allows you to target the job and the employer in a very specific way, avoiding a repetition of the facts stated in the CV. It enables you to tell the employer what is attractive about you, and why you want to join them. In addition you can highlight unique skills and qualities that you would bring along to that role and the company.
