   :: Resume/CVs

Excerpted from the Denmark Career Guide


Job applications should be submitted as early as possible, but especially before the date they are due. Applications by email are becoming common, and it is usually permissible to send an application by fax before also sending it via post. Candidates should request permission to fax applications, however, and be sure to get the name of the individual who will receive the fax. With email applications, candidates should keep in mind that the format of their messages could be changed by their or the prospective employer’s email programs, thus making a less-than-favorable impression. Also, signatures are sometimes impossible to send electronically. Since this is an important part of the application, it may be wise to send applications via post; however, the preferred method of submission is usually stated along with the submission date.

Documents as copies of references, educational certificates or diplomas may be attached. For a more personalized application, candidates sometimes opt to include a photo. Only professional-looking, good quality photos will give a good impression, however. A photo should only be included it will add quality to the job application.

You’ll find specific examples of cover letters and CV’s relevant to Denmark in the complete Denmark guide.
