1. First - Prepare
You need to get to know yourself, the more you know yourself the more you can craft a beautiful persuasive resume. The better you can craft a smart application letter and the more you can WOW them in an interview.

2. Prepare – What sets me apart?
Strengths
Talents
Passions/Interests
Values
Personality
Limitations
Accomplishments:
How did you make the company better?
How did you make society better?
Here a question that you need to be able to answer – What sets you apart?
My suggestion is for you to write the answers to the following. If you want you can even do that now, just pause the video while you write.
What are your strengths? In other words, what you are you good at…write down the big things and the little things too. Make a long list. Don’t cull them –just write. Ask your friends and your parents too, they’ll bring you wonderful insights.
What are your talents? This is easier for some over others. I have a friend who has a beautiful singing voice – her talent is obvious. One of my talents is not-so-obvious – I am good at arranging things. Don’t hesitate to list things that your brain tells you is odd. Think over the negative thoughts.
What do you care about? Your passion. Your interests. For example, maybe, you care about sustainability so you take care to recycle. This often connects to your values.
What is your personality? That too affects your choices…are you an extravert or an introvert.
What are you limitations? We all have them. Know what they are…don’t hide from them.
Importantly,
Think about to previous job or group experiences, how did you make that organization better. Remember, the resume and application letter is about your contributions.

3. Prepare – Ask yourself
Do you enjoy working with people, data or things?
Would you like to work for someone else or yourself?
How important is salary, benefits, technology or stability?
Would you rather work for a corporation or a company?
How would you describe the perfect job?
