• Giving thought, consideration and pursuit of a Volunteer Experience Role or a Work Experience Role. Employers are more likely to hire someone they know than sometimes individuals they do not know.

• Employers think highly of Gig Workers who demonstrate their serious intent to working by their actions.  If you take on a Volunteer Experience role, congratulations – you are breaking out of the “no experience = no job opportunity” cycle in the Gig economy. Now you have some experience to start applying in your Resume, Skills & Experience Sections and you start to position yourself as part of the group of other Applicants who do have experience.
• Building your Resume with the use of widely available and accepted resume tools and building resources.
• Start to apply for positions and always state your goal. Never say you will take “anything” or “any” position. This leaves the employer with the sense that you are not clear or confident in what value you can provide to their organization.

Put yourself in the Employers position; What do you think their organization is trying provide to people and think about experiences you have had as a customer and what you could offer or provide better than what you have experienced and tell prospective employers about how you make a better experience happen for their customers and for the employer.
