What better way to showcase your knowledge and passion for their business than by sharing an innovative idea to improve their products, services, or processes? This shows you’re serious about the opportunity and have taken the time to understand their business. If your suggestion ties to profitability, you’ll position yourself as an invaluable candidate.
As a job seeker, are you making yourself visible in the current crowded job market? If not, you’re prolonging your job search. You need to be more than just another indistinguishable application. Stand out! Engage! Don’t be afraid to promote your experience, the results you’ve achieved and how you think. Ensure you’re not just another job seeker who tastes like chicken.
It is common for job seekers to treat their profiles as an afterthought, hence they miss out on job opportunities.
