When Drafting Applications & Interviewing: Remember What Employers Want
When you apply for a job, you know exactly what you're looking for. You want a company you love, great co-workers, a decent salary, a culture where you fit in and, most importantly, you want to love what you'll be doing.
But do you ever consider what the employer is looking for in its employees?
While it is important to tailor each application and interview to the specific qualities of each employer, there are some universal traits that all employers look for in their candidates. Make sure your application materials and interviews are addressing these things as well.
For a good article on what these universal traits are and how to approach them, see this article written by Rachel Zupek for CareerBuilder.com.
