How Can I Make Up For Lack Of Required Experience?
Ask The Headhunter, Monday, September 16th, 2024
Question: How relevant do you really think the required experience is on a job description?
Nick's Reply: Companies often bend their 'experience requirements' because these are just guidelines, not written in stone. You may have other qualities that are important to the company.
Preparation is indeed key. I'd start by calling back the person who scheduled the interview. Hopefully, that's the hiring manager. (If it's not, you must try and identify the hiring manager so you can talk with them.)
