Tired of sending job applications and getting no/less response? In most cases, it's not because you're not good enough for the job. Shockingly, 80% of applicants make common errors that sabotage their chances. Want to be in the winning 20% who score (remote) job interviews?

Avoid the top 3 common mistakes:

1. Mass Applications, Zero Personalization

Applying everywhere with generic applications is a recipe for rejection. Tailor each application to the job and company you're targeting. Hiring managers notice the effort to understand their culture and requirements.

2. Not Matching Your Application to the Job

Sometimes, people don't pay enough attention to what the job needs. Your resume, cover letter, and portfolio should match the job description. Make it clear that you have the right skills and experience.

3. Unprofessional Portfolios

Your portfolio is often a showcase of your work and skills, and it should reflect professionalism and attention to detail. Too often, job applicants neglect the presentation of their portfolio, making it challenging for hiring managers to navigate and assess their work. Remember that hiring managers have limited time, so make it easy for them to see your accomplishments. Organize your portfolio neatly and ensure it's user-friendly.
