Experience translator

Choose where you have worked so far. You get strengths that count just as much in other occupations, plus ready-made sentences for your application and CV.

Where have you worked or taken on responsibility so far?

You can choose more than one. The matching is a template, not an assessment.

Your strengths appear here.

Choose one or more areas.

As soon as you choose an area, you see here which strengths you take with you, each with a ready-made sentence for your application that you can copy.
