What is a formal motivation ?

A motivation letter, yes!, expresses your motivation for the job! It's not a re-cap of your CV. It's neither a 'standard template' letter that you send to 1001 different companies.. A motivation letter expresses your genuine motivation of WHY you would like to join X-LABORATORY for the actual JOB you apply to! Be honest about why we should take you.

A portfolio, is a portfolio! Think of it as your etalage. Within 20 seconds we must get interested because you are the perfect fit for the job. Send us a snapshot of your RELEVANT prior works. Don't exaggerate but show what you can. Send us a .PDF or .PPT with 1-2 slides per project that you have designed, built, programmed or tested.. make it visual and crystal clear. For software?? Show the product, highlight what it does..

What where the key-challanges of each project? Until where did it go? (Prototype? Concept? Serial Product?) And make sure to mention exactly what YOU contributed to it, not only your peers (while you can show group-projects, please highlight your part clearly). Be specific about your contribution. Trust us, in a first interview we will find out quickly if you fit!

So, good luck! And we hope to see your (!) application soon!
