How you do it. 

Your application must present you and your skills in a way that will make the recipient want to call you in for a job interview.

How to proceed when replying to a job advertisement. 

The easiest way to find job advertisements is on the internet on so-called "job portals" or the websites of companies or recruitment agencies. Newspapers and industry newsletters are other good sources.

Through its advertisement, the employer has taken the first initiative – by defining and describing what is required of the person who is wanted for the job.

Your task here is to describe how you can live up to the employer's expectations. For example, you can give examples of how you have acquired the experience required. It is important that you become properly acquainted with the company's needs for example by:

  • Reading the advertisement carefully – what does it say in "black on white" and what can you read between the lines

  • Acquiring more information by calling the contact person

  • Searching the company and the industry on the internet
