Re: job application without reference?

hello everyone,

I would like to apply for a similar job in a an other company. I am ready to send out my CV and cover letter, but I am wondering how do I deal with the references? I do not want my current boss to know that I am looking for an other job.

It'd say it's ok to lie to your old company in this situation. Tell them you want a "Zwischenzeugnis" (which is a letter of reference that doesn't imply you're leaving the company). Make up a reason why you need it - there are all kinds of situations you might need a Zwischenzeugnis for - for certain courses, off-the-job training etc.
