This includes your job application. Employers review the information on job applications to decide who they want to schedule for an interview. Employers often judge the appearance of your application as a clue to how much importance you put on the quality of your work.  \nA good rule of thumb is to put yourself in the employer’s shoes when completing your employment paperwork. If you asked someone to complete an application, what would you hope to see?  \nIn many ways the application serves as a pre-employment test. The employer is able to able several things about you as a candidate. Some of these include: can you follow instructions, are you able to write clearly and concisely or how attentive are you to details.  \nTips for showing employers your value  \n􀁸 Focus on application quality: Pay attention to the details; complete application with care to ensure no typos, misspellings, grammar errors or a sloppy appearance.  \n􀁸 Study job opportunity announcements: This is the best way to determine important keywords. Use these identified key words to gain their attention.  \n􀁸 Be concise: Recruiters may only take seconds for the first review and they must quickly be able to identify you qualifications.  \n􀁸 Highlight accomplishments with numbers: Which of the following entries would stand out?:  \n􀁸 Wrote news releases  \n􀁸 Wrote 25 news releases in a three week period under daily deadlines.  \n􀁸 Create a master application: The master application allows you to gather all of you vital employment information in one location. Saves you time when completing online applications and avoids time-outs, losing all your information.  \nAction words and how to use them  \nEvery job involves using data, interacting with people or handling things. Some jobs require all three. Use action words to draw the employer’s attention.  \nAction words are a vital part of your application. The application and supplemental questionnaire are your chances to stand out from the crowd. Action words (verbs) can ignite an otherwise dull application by bringing your skills into the spotlight and giving your descriptions weight and strength. Using the following example, if you were the employer, who would you rather invite for an interview?  \n• The person who has experience as a mechanic.  \n• The person who “diagnoses and performs all phases of automotive repair, including tune-ups, troubleshooting, brakes, lubes, and welds with gas, arc and wire feed.”  \nDo they say the same thing? Not to the employer. The use of action words and descriptive skills helps set the second example far apart from the first. The list of action words below can help you write a more effective and noticeable application.  \nMany job seekers do a good job of sharing what they have done in their past jobs, but most fail to demonstrate their value by sharing how good they were at it. The best way to share your value is to share the accomplishments at each job that you are proud of.  \nWhen you start to think of accomplishments, there are two types tha","cbCaisSIyMYIP5G3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisSIyMYIP5G3","pdf",5563974,19,"English","# Table of Contents\n## Quality and introduction to applications\n## General application tips\n## Action words\n## Show your value\n## Answering questions\n## Tips for paper applications\n## Tips for electronic applications\n## Application activity\n## Be aware\n## References\n## Master application\n## Good and bad application examples\n## Application checklist\n## Things to remember","[{\"question\":\"How do employers evaluate job applications?\",\"answer\":\"Employers review the information to decide who to schedule for an interview and often judge appearance and clarity as an indicator of the importance placed on work quality.
