In today’s day and
age, what does it really mean to be “qualified” for a job? Unfortunately, for
many people in the job market, it means they have the experience and education
to do the job well. While these factors are important, they only really qualify you
for a possible job interview. It gets you in the door but as you may have
noticed, it doesn't get you hired. Almost everyone who gets an in-person
interview is qualified ‘enough’. The rest is up to you. Are you the person they
want to work with every day? (Click
