Spot the mistakes
Guess first, no penalty. AI wrote the top of a CV (the document that lists your jobs, education and skills) for a software tester whose documents show a B.Tech in Computer Science, an English C1 certificate and a German A2 certificate. Tap the four rows that claim more than the documents show. Tap a row that's fine and you get a hint.
AI-written CV summary

AI writes German application documents fast. It also states German rules with total confidence, and some of what it states can be out of date or made up.
Most lines in your CV only need checking against your own documents. Four kinds need more: anything about the law, money, your qualification's status in Germany, or your language level. For those, check an official source, then keep the line, fix it or delete it.
| What AI writes | Why it is risky | Where to check |
|---|---|---|
| "German: fluent" when your certificate says A2 | Interviewers may test your German | Your certificate, written as a CEFR level |
| A German job title for your degree, such as "Ingenieur" | Engineer is a protected job title in Germany | Anerkennung in Deutschland |
| "Qualification recognized in Germany" | Recognition is a procedure that ends with an official notice | Your notice, if you have one |
| "Requires visa sponsorship" | You don't need visa sponsorship from an employer, you apply yourself | Make it in Germany, visa |
| A salary expectation figure | The tool is guessing | The Federal Employment Agency's Entgeltatlas (in German) |
| An EU Blue Card salary threshold | The thresholds are published every year | Make it in Germany, EU Blue Card |
Make it in Germany is the German government's official portal for international workers. Anerkennung in Deutschland (German for "recognition in Germany") is the official portal on recognition. The EU Blue Card is a residence permit for qualified workers. CEFR levels run from A1, the lowest, to C2, the highest.
