Personal Statements Include such things as: Events from your education/career to date that make you especially suited to the job (including volunteer work/work experience): it is important to be able to write about these events enthusiastically What it is about the job that especially attracts you to it The skills/knowledge base you have that is relevant to the job What is the unique contribution you can make to the university/company? Check online for their mission statement and refer to that when describing how you can contribute Refer directly to the job description using the same language and then relate that to your own experiences What are your career aims? You might have to be creative here! Tailor your answer to the job you’re applying for and make it seem as though you are desperate to pursue a career in that area! However, try to make your statement as honest as possible; you want to come across as a real person and not simply parroting what you think the employers want to hear. 11/03/20167
