Basic Purpose

In a highly competitive job market, every job seeker needs a way to stand out from the crowd. But what separates the great from the good and makes a particular candidate too irresistible to ignore? Often, it is one of the following 3 attributes:
1.   Able to prove your worth: It is one thing to call yourself a good communicator or an effective leader, and another to back those claims with proof. Employers want to know what you will bring to the table if hired. Candidates who can provide tangible examples of successes at their current and past jobs will certainly stand out. More and more employers simply aren’t interested questions like, ‘if you were an animal, which one will you be?’ They are increasing interested in seeing if the candidate understands the value that he or she is expected to bring to the employer once hired.

Most applicants for commission-driven jobs can demonstrate competency and quantify value by discussing how they met quotas, exceeded sales objectives or enlisted new clients. Candidates in other fields who are accustomed to thinking this way may have more difficulty, but trying to do so may ultimately land them a job. To come up with examples, it might help to examine your CV and performance reviews first or even internship records. What have you accomplished that sets you apart from the others? How can those achievements be applied to this job you are applying for? Is there a way to quantify or explain your achievements in terms of time or money saved, output or improvement? It can be especially effective to search for examples that are relevant to the position and of great interest to the employer. For example, a candidate who demonstrates knowledge of world market tends to grab the attention of a global company. Examining the job advertisement for keywords can offer clues as to what might be most significant

2.   Demonstrating more than simple knowledge of the company: An acceptable candidate looks at the company’s website before heading for the interview. An irresistible one learns more. To stand out, you need to show that your research on the company was a mile and not an inch deep. You need to show that you understand the company quite well. Annual reports and financial statements can help. Likewise, check for any recent news events or press releases about the organization. Knowledge of small details such as the company’s motto or vision, its products and services, competitors, stock price, and senior management as well as the company history make you stand out.
3.   Enthusiasm: If you have taken the time to demonstrate your worth and to do your research on the company, chances are that you are well on your way to becoming the final candidate an employer can’t resist. You are truly an enthusiastic candidate. How does enthusiasm shine through?First I believe in the candidate’s interest in the interview itself. It reflects the excitement with which they will undertake their duties once they are offered the job. Questions that are not only about the job the candidate would be doing but also about the job in the future show enthusiasm. Candidates who ask the interviewer how they may expand the position’s responsibilities demonstrate enthusiasm. So are those who show interest in upward mobility, those who want to move up and why the position they are being interviewed for is vacant. Also perceived as enthusiastic are those who show interest on how they will fit in with the group to which they are assigned. Let a potential employer know that you have spent time learning about this particular job.
Chances are that your genuine excitement could become contagious. Companies love to hire people who have passion and enthusiasm for a position rather than a candidate who sees the position as just another job.

The Account Manager is a sales position responsible for growing and maintaining client relationships as well as to meet set sales targets.

You should approach applying for internships in much the same way as looking for a job. Therefore much of what appears on this page about CV writing and covering letters for full-time jobs and career advancement will be relevant if you are trying to find a placement for work experience or an internship. The tips and ideas on the job interviews section are also relevant to seeking and applying for and successfully gaining internships and work experience placements.
It’s essential to research prospective internship employers. And plan this well in advance. People who leave things until the last minute reduce their options, and increase the amount of competitive pressures involved. Also, planning and researching early in the process will maximize the chances of identifying and securing the best placements.

Employers will be impressed by people who have clearly planned ahead of the rest. Employers will not be impressed by those who’ve obviously left things late.

The action plan starts with researching your target market or sector, however you define it. Focusing on a defined sector helps because certain economies of scale come into effect: commonalities exist between similar organizations and situations which save our time and enable efficient use of our efforts. We can get into a groove and a mind-set that will work in lots of similar situations. Being vague and having no focus makes it impossible to derive these advantages. Variety might be the spice of life, but it’s not helpful in putting together a targeted action plan, where focus, consistency, familiarity, knowledge, expertise and professionalism are the important criteria for success.
Research is relatively easy using the internet – but remember the phone as well, especially when you locate a contact who might guide you. Try to identify the focal points where information is gathered and disseminated for your target sector(s). Most vertical industry sectors – and professions – are represented by at least one trade association or professional body or institute. Large sectors will be represented by many different trade associations, bodies and institutes – each of which represents a sub-sector or ‘niche’ within the main sector. Each representative body will generally have a trade magazine or journal, and also probably a website. These pivotal points will enable you to find out most of what you need to know so as to identify prospective internships (and employers). Use the phone to talk to people in these organizations – editors and secretaries are very knowledgeable and many are very helpful. Try to network and seek referrals from contacts, each time asking politely for help – just be honest and courteous about what you are trying to achieve and many people will be extremely helpful. Accept the fact that you will find yourself barking up the wrong tree on a few occasions – no problem – move onto the next point of contact. Sooner or later you will find what you seek.
What you seek of course is a good list of potential employers (and relevant contact details) who fit your criteria. Your criteria will extend beyond market sector and job function. Geography, organization size, market position, style and culture might also feature in your ideal profile of an internship organization. Again, define and describe to yourself what you are seeking – an employer profile – and use your research sources to compile a list of the organizations that meet it.
Researching individual organizations on the internet and by telephone, and by requesting details from them (sales brochures, annual reports, etc) helps to build up a feel of the market and or professional sector early on, and this individually focused research is very beneficial later in the process when you begin to tighten your specification and list of prospective employers. This detailed research will directly improve your written approach and you performance at interview.
When approaching any organizations for internship or work-experience-placements, resist the temptation to send out lots of emails. Letters are best. Emails give a far lower rate of response than letters. Letters have to be opened, but emails don’t, and many are binned as junk or spam. Follow the principles on this page to write and send the most impressive CV and cover-letters possible. It’s not necessary to have had loads of work experience to create a great-looking impressive CV. See the notes above about writing CVs with little or no work experience.
