#JTC300R8Chat I noticed a lot of the advice in these articles overlap! Especially about being clean and prepared for an interview, online or otherwise. Having a "weak image" during a skype interview could lose you the job.

#JTC300R8Chat The most daunting thing articulated in Article 1 is the fact it takes 7 months to find and secure a job. It really means that you have to start the job search way earlier than you would for part-time jobs. Building your resume early for that job would be smart.

@sscsunews I agree with your statement! As someone who hates phone calls because they lack body language, a skype interview seems pretty daunting. One positive about having a skype interview vs. a phone interview is that you can see the interviewers facial expressions. #JTC300R8chat

Article 3 opened my eyes to how necessary technology based skills are in this day and age, I really had no idea! My ideal list would use words like "conservation", "zoology", and " field research". Nonetheless, I will now try to incorporate computer science into my career. #JTCR8

@hkaylea Her article also explains that you can do this is by discovering the name of the hiring manager or mentioning the company by name on your cover letter. Then you are already proving you are a great candidate who does their research! #JTCR8

@omgitstessmarie I think that this relates well to Article 4! Although companies want to see your experiences, it's also extremely important you show you have values and morals that align with their goals. Honesty and authenticity are some of those positive values you should express.#JTCR8

#JTCR8 Article 1: It's important to not only highlight your success and potential, but to go beyond and provide those concrete examples. "Managed and organized a large team of coworkers" looks better than just writing " has excellent leadership abilities".
