How to Fill Out A Winning Job Application
- Read and follow all instructions carefully.
- Keep the application spotless.
Be sure your answers are legible; type if possible, or print neatly using black ink.
- Misspelled words are fatal; have someone else proofread the application if at all possible.
- Make a checklist of supporting documents that are requested. Cross off each document as you attach it to the application.
- Attach a copy of your résumé to the application unless you are specifically instructed not to.
- Make a copy of the completed application for your records; refer to it before your interview with that employer.
- Meet the application deadline!
