Résumés and cover letters in another language

JobMatch writes your tailored résumé, a rewrite and its cover letter in twelve languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Swedish, Finnish, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese and Arabic.

Choosing the language

On Optimize, the Write in menu sits under the job description. It starts on Same as the posting: JobMatch reads the posting and writes in its language, so a German posting gets a German résumé. The menu shows the language it detected. If it can't tell, it writes in English; to use another language, pick one from the list.

What changes

• The résumé and its cover letter are written in that language by the same Quick Match or Detailed Match you would use in English, at the same price. Quick Match or Detailed Match
• Section headings, dates, the page footer and the cover-letter wording follow the language.
• Your names, employers, titles, dates and figures stay exactly as your record states them. Nothing is changed into a different fact.
• The document audit reads each language and checks figures in that language's number format.
• The cover letter is written in the résumé's language.

Downloads

PDF and Word files are made in the chosen language. For Polish, Chinese, Japanese and Arabic, and for any text a standard font can't draw (an English résumé that names Łódź, say), the PDF carries its own font so every character prints. Arabic documents read right to left. Downloading your résumé
