German Cover Letter Template (Anschreiben) with Pawan Bhoyar

A German cover letter isn't a US one translated. It has its own layout (DIN header, Betreff line, formal opening/closing) and a level of formality that trips up almost every international applicant.

Inside you will find :

1. Word template with the correct German business-letter structure
2. Recipient block, date, Betreff, and formal salutation pre-formatted
3. Paragraph-by-paragraph prompts telling you exactly what to write
4. Example phrasing (adaptable to any field)

Fill in the blanks and send something that reads like it was written by someone who's applied here for years.
