Read over the job description in detail and think of a few skills that make you uniquely qualified to perform the job duties. You need to be unique and separate yourself from the talent pool. While you cannot possibly know the qualifications of other applicants, now is the time to sell yourself and state the things that make you the best fit for the job. This is your sales pitch to show the hiring manager you're ready to do the job.

In your fast-paced organization, the ability to effectively prioritize is a significant component of success."
