- Create your own brand that portrays you as a professional with valuable expertise
- i.e. "Susan Williams - Administrative Assistant" or "Charles Escobar - Customer Service Specialist"
- Set yourself apart from other entry-level applicants
- FOCUS ON YOUR EDUCATION AND SKILLS
- What can you do well that this job requires?
- What will be useful to the hiring company?
- What have you done in school and what have you studied that has prepared you for this job?
- TAKE INVENTORY OF YOUR ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
