Employers are looking for abilities and attributes which distinguish you from the crowd. These could involve achievements or special skills and qualities. Examples of these include:
· Speech – being able to effectively communicate with other members of the workforce and are able to voice your opinions during meetings and the initial interview
· Punctual – To be on time is extremely important. If you are on time, it shows that you are motivated and are trying your best to help the business succeed.
· Enterprising – An individual needs to show a good amount of knowledge about the business world and needs to be able to have the motivation to use all resources at their disposal to achieve as much as possible.
· Creativity – You have to be creative and submit new ideas to people in order to show that you care for the business and want to see it succeed. Also it shows that you have an open mind and are thinking of better ways to overcome problems.
· Intelligence – You must show that you are not incompetent and that you have an acceptable level of intelligence. Employers don’t want to employ someone they think is thick, so you must demonstrate that you are not.
· Analytical – You must show that you are able to analyse and overcome problems in the workplace or have the analytical skills to be able to be able to see a solution and to act on it or bring it to a superior with the answer to show that you can cope with problems.
· Likeable – be a people person! It is far easier to secure a job if you attempt to get on with the interviewer rather than being rude or talking down to them
So when in an interview for a new job, remember, to stand out from the crowd, you need to be SPECIAL.
