I am a native German who was born and raised in Germany. I had spent a short period of time in California as a teenager, then went back to Germany. German is my native language and I speak it on a daily basis. During college I worked as an interpreter at the Frankfurt Trade Fair and I wrote my Master thesis in English. While working as an onsite recruiter and as a headhunter in Germany, I read and translated thousands of resumes in English and German and I conducted telephone and face-to-face interviews in both languages. Since moving to the United States 5 years ago, I have been working as a freelance translator and have translated company webpages, articles, resumes, birth certificates, and personal documents/letters. I speak both, English and German, on a daily basis. I am also a Senior Recruiting and Hiring expert with more than 10 years of extensive headhunting, hiring, and onboarding experience, specializing in the field of Engineering and IT. I have recruited and hired professionals for positions in the US, Germany, Switzerland, Great Britain, Austria, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, and Macedonia. Since I have extensive face-to-face interview experience in English as well as in German and have read thousands of resumes over the last 15 years, I can also coach you regarding job interviews and assist you in resume writing.
