Make the right impression

A resume that reads awkwardly costs you the interview

Your resume has one job: open the door. When a recruiter or admissions office reads a German resume that has been translated literally, the job titles do not match the market, the dates and credentials look off, and a strong candidate gets skipped. The work was real; the translation just did not show it.

When an employer or program asks for a certified translation, a plain version will not do. They want a translation they can verify, with your roles and qualifications stated clearly and matched to the rest of your application.

I purchased a translation on Friday and expected a 24-hour turnaround but also ordered a notary not knowing it wasn't part of the estimated time. Unsurprisingly I needed it immediately. I emailed support and within a few hours, it was completely signed and notarized! Hats off to y'all!

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have questions about German translation at ABC, this page covers them. Find out how the process runs, what you will pay, how fast we deliver, where your document is accepted, the notarization options on offer, and how you receive the final version.

Will my German job titles read the way a U.S. recruiter expects?

Yes. A literal swap often leaves German titles that do not match how U.S. employers describe the same roles, which makes a strong candidate get skipped. Our translators present your roles and seniority in terms a recruiter recognizes, while staying true to what your resume actually states.

Your credentials and dates are carried over cleanly too, so nothing looks off when the reader scans the page.

Do you translate a German resume (Lebenslauf) from Germany, Austria, or Switzerland?

Yes. We translate resumes, the Lebenslauf, from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and other German-speaking regions, including the differences in how titles, education, and credentials are described across those countries.

Does my employer or program need the German resume translation certified?

Many employers and admissions offices ask for a certified translation they can verify rather than a plain one. Each of our German resume translations includes a signed certification statement confirming it is complete and accurate, so it meets that requirement for official use.

I am applying in more than one country. Can you translate my resume into other languages too?

Yes. We cover 120+ languages, so if your search spans more than one country we can prepare your resume in each target language, with your titles and credentials presented consistently across versions.

How fast is delivery and what does certified German resume translation cost?

Standard delivery is 48 hours: upload your resume, confirm the scope, and the certified translation comes back the next day. Pricing is $24.10 per page with the certification included, and you see the full quote before any work begins.
