Hi Amanda,

Limited job experience doesn’t have to be a barrier if you position yourself well. Many organizations are eager to bring on young, talented professionals, even those fresh out of college or with minimal experience.

To stand out, focus on showcasing the skills and competencies most relevant to the role you’re applying for. Tailor your resume to highlight these strengths prominently.

While a well-organized resume is essential, consider including a thoughtfully crafted cover letter. This is your chance to emphasize how your skills align with the position, making your application stand out and increasing your chances of getting noticed by recruiters.

Best of luck with your job search!
