Before You Hit Send


Seven key questions to ask yourself before applying for a job.





 
  1. Can I learn more about the job requirements and the needs of the organisation?
  2. Do I meet at least 70% of the selection criteria?
  3. What key words and phrases are used in the position description?
  4. Can I enhance my resume to make it through the applicant tracking system?
  5. Have I made it clear how I differentiate myself from other similar candidates?
  6. Does my CV clearly show how I can solve the problem and add value to the organisation?
  7. Have I followed the application instructions specified in the ad?
