"I have been a bartender for a couple of years and believe that the most applicable transferable skill that would be the biggest asset to you is my understanding of customer service. I can read non-verbal cues from customers very well and am quick to read someone from the cues they give."

"I have been an administrator in a cross-departmental environment for many years, giving me exposure to tasks related to budgeting, finance, and more. I would say that my greatest asset is my sound understanding of the financial structure of an organization."

You have many assets that you plan to bring with you to this new job but how do they fit in with what the company is actively seeking? Take another peek at the job description or job posting, and make a note of which assets crossover with their must-have's. Be sure to use unique keywords that will make you memorable.
Some great assets for an administrator to possess:
- Strong knowledge of related industry terminology
- An understanding of industry trends
- Full grasp on the technology used in the company
- Skilled in the use of social media
- Exceptional writing skills, either technical or persuasive
- Understanding of business finance, profit, and loss
- Experience dealing with vendors, or contract negotiations

"I believe that my best asset is the fact that I have experience with contract negotiations, and dealing directly with vendors. This skill sets me apart from other candidates because I can easily cross over between administration tasks, and account management, or even accounts receivable or payable."
