Reading WHY DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD BE GOOD AT THIS JOB?
Most application forms for jobs or further education include a section that asks you to write a paragraph or more about yourself. This could be in a general way, which is often called a personal statement,
or as a response to a specific question. The types of question you might be asked are : Why do you think you would be good at this job? What are your career goals? What personal characteristics do you have that show you will be successful in this profession?
Explain why you have applied. This is chance to persuade an employer or educator what a great addition to their company, organization, college of university you would be. Form your answer they will decide whether they are interested in you . so it is important to make a good impression. We asked some employers for some tips on how to create a positive effect. Here’s what they said:The most important thing is to do your research. You need to convince the reader that you understand what the company or organization does, and what the job or course will involve. Then show that you have the ability to be successful by giving evidence of how your interests, qualifications or experience prove that you have the necessary skills. Be honest, but don’t hold back and be modest If you are good at something it’s OK to say so. Don’t send an application form with mistakes, even if you have corrected them. The form should be clear and easy to read. Avoid being to general; your personal statement should be interesting and original. For example, an applicant for a job as a tour guide who says “I like meeting people and traveling” isn’t giving the employer any fresh ideas or appealing information.
