Skills

Once you identify your skills, learning how to transfer those into the workplace and marketing them to employers is essential.

Your list of skills can carry a lot of weight when your application is reviewed by an employer. You should try to identify the skills you have, and the skills you may need to gain or improve on. The ability to identify and learn new skills when necessary is, in itself, a skill (e.g. I am a fast learner).
