Is this for studying abroad?

No. It is for internship and entry job applications abroad. Admissions and student visas are out of scope.

Which countries should I preselect?

Start with where you are applying—often Germany, Netherlands, France, or the UK. You can add more countries in the same package if needed.

Depends on the country. German applications often expect a professional photo; UK and US typically do not. CrossBorder drafts follow country rules—always review.

Will this guarantee an internship offer?

No. You get a country-localized draft and an estimated ATS checklist. Final editing and honest content are required.

CV with little experience

Internships only

This page helps with paid or credit internships, Praktikum, stage, and Werkstudent-style applications across borders.

It is not for university admission dossiers or student visas.

Little or no work experience

Lead with education, academic projects, campus roles, and volunteer work. Keep claims factual and adapt the layout to the target country.
