When you are on the move to land yourself a job the first thing
you will notice is that you have competition. How can you make yourself stand
out? An article by CNN makes three suggestions to set you apart from those
standing right by your side at every Career Fair and Information Session.
- Prove it! What can you bring to the table? Make sure you have specific examples to share of your success you have had in past or current jobs to prove your worth.
- What do you know? You should know more than just the minimal things. Look at the company’s website and learn about them! Find out what other resources are available to you to learn more than what is on their website!
- Show your enthusiasm! Employers want to see your enthusiasm for the job. Show them you have passion! Is this just another job to you or is this an opportunity to excel?
Remember, the people you are talking to have never met you before!
They don’t know your abilities, knowledge, or enthusiasm…yet! This is your
opportunity to show them why they want
to hire you!
