Applying to GHK – Your Guide to a Successful Application
Please consider the following information for a strong and compelling application:
A strong cover letter is the first step in a successful application. It should be no more than two pages and clearly convey why you are interested in joining the GHK team – with a particular focus on your motivation
The résumé is a central element of your application and should offer a concise yet complete overview of your career to date. A clear, tabular structure helps highlight relevant details at a glance. Be sure to present your experience in a well-organized and logical sequence.
If you are particularly well-suited for the position you are applying for, be sure to make this clear in your cover letter. Use the opportunity to stand out from other applicants by clearly outlining your key qualifications, skills, and experience – and by relating them directly to the requirements of the role. Show how your strengths and past experience can actively contribute to meeting the company’s goals and expectations. A strong cover letter is your chance to highlight both your motivation and the value you bring to the position.
Complete application documents provide the best overall picture. Therefore, please include all certificates and employer's references that are relevant and meaningful for the position. In addition, be sure to mention any additional skills or qualifications you may have – such as language or IT certificates – and highlight any social or voluntary engagement, if applicable.
