Should You Apply for the Job?
We always encourage people to apply and to stretch for positions, but in a competitive job market, you always want to make sure that the skills you actually have, the words you are using to describe your skills, and the focus area of the job description all make sense before you sit down and prepare you application.
NPN Search Consultant Lisa Brown developed a worksheet to help you evaluate your skills against a job description.
Use this worksheet as a way to evaluate yourself and then compare that to posted positions or opportunities you hear about in the community. It can also help you shape your resume and cover letter so that you are really keyed in on the position!
