We are asking for 8 years of industry experience and you have just 5 years. Why do you think you are qualified for this position?

"Although I have five years of experience vs. eight years, I feel strongly that I can exceed expectations in this role. In my previous job, I was outperforming colleagues who had 12 years of experience, as measured by customer conversions. To me, it's all about drive and the ability to learn quickly."

"Along with my five years working in the IT industry, I have worked in related industries my entire career, including telecommunications and cybersecurity. Also, I feel confident that graduate degree and the applicable skills I've gained from it will give me a boost in doing this job effectively, given that only a bachelor's degree is required."
