1. Know Their Sweetspot:
It’s my biggest secret before I even submit any application, I will under study them to find every single details about them. I will even go as far as asking people that work there about the organisation corporate culture, work environment and condition.
How well do you know them?
However, these are pointers to question you need to ask.
– What is their corporate culture? — This will help you know how you will fit in.
– What is the company history? — If you know where they are coming from you can know where they are going.
– What are the employees’ background? — This will not only help you bench mark yourself with them but help you understand the people you will work with better.
– What are their values, mission and vision — This is more like their sweet button if you can use it.
People these days apply for job opportunity without relevant experience to it. A good application takes a day or more to complete. Think about whether the job really is a good fit for you.

2. Make Their Life Easy:
From how you sent your application to how you structure your resume, the employer will know if you will be the employee that will give them extra work. Nobody wants a liability but asset. From how you structure your email and resume, a good resume should be relevant, very specific and simplified to them.
Many people do make this mistake, which is very wrong. They would dust the resume that they use 5 year ago to apply for an engineering job and use same to apply for human resource manager or even a bank opportunities.
Don’t get me wrong you might have the skills for them to employ you but you have to make your resume fit into the industry. For engineering opportunity, they are on the look out for technical skills unlike bank opportunities are looking for analytical skills. The different is clear.

3. Show them, don’t tell them:
[/b]I love this, with them you can be be seen as been proud or boastful. Let me use myself as example, rather than saying I have great leadership skills, I will say I discovered that there was no entrepreneurial community that made me to start a student business club and within 1 year we have over 1000 members, still counting and we have helped a lot of them with funding opportunity even the $5000 Tony Elumelu Foundation grant. We are currently setting structure and process in place to make sure that we connect more student entrepreneurs to funding opportunity. I now have a team of 10 students that work with me on this project.
So which sounds better?
I have great leadership skills or the one above? Obviously for you to have done all this you must have a great leadership skills.
So let your ACTION do the TALKING

[b]4. Count Your lucky STARS:
However, the secret of describing the Situation (S), Task (T), your Actions (A) and the Result (R) which altogether makes a STAR — is definitely good practice in application forms, and particularly in interviews. Just don’t spend too long on the situation and task, as I’m most interested in what you actually did.
Be careful while using this secret, just as I said above don’t waste time talking about Situation (S) and Task (T) it is important you talk about them a bit because it will give them understanding what lead to your Actions (A) and the Result (R).
