Be Concise

Once you have created a short-list of skills and qualities that you offer the company, compile a set of stories and facts that illustrate your unique abilities. When doing so, remember a few guidelines:

• Your goal is to convince the interviewer that you are right for the job.
• Be specific.
• Highlight information readily understood as transferable.
• Accentuate accomplishments.
• Connect your past experience to the position you seek.
• Reveal your values.
• Remember your audience and their values.
• Keep your presentation under two minutes.
