5 WAYS TO SELL YOURSELF ON THE APPLICATION
WHY YOU WANT TO 1 WORK THERE Employers look for staff who are passionate or, at least, interested in the work. As a minimum, ensure the right company name is outlined in your job application. Jobseekers are unlikely to be hired if referencing a competitor’s company name. WHAT YOU HAVE TO 2 OFFER Perhaps it is a friendly personality, prior experience, or a penchant for accuracy, but outline the skills and attributes you hold which will be useful or required for the role. 3 QUALIFICATIONS For many entry-level roles, a formal qualification may not be required. If you have studied a relevant course – be it a school subject, First Aid, or tertiary degree – put this on your resume. 4 CAREER GOALS Highlight how your career aspirations fit the casual role. 5 AVAILABILITY A Christmas casual role is not for jobseekers who stipulate “unavailable on Sundays”. Pointing out your eagerness to work early/late shifts, on weekends and public holidays may mean you stand out for the right reasons.
