Do You Really Need to Quantify Everything on Your CV?

It’s season 1, episode 7 of The Berlin Life podcast, and we’re back with some practical, no-fluff advice to help you find work in Germany.

🐿 In a Nutshell

Here’s what we get into:

• Why accomplishments are key to writing a CV that actually lands interviews

• When numbers do work — and when they might not

• How showing impact can be just as powerful (and sometimes better!)

• Why exaggerating or stretching the truth is a major red flag

• How imposter syndrome can hold you back from owning your wins
