03Projects and impact that prove your content marketing skills

Look at this from the recruiter's perspective. They have 200 applications to review. They are looking for reasons to say yes, fast.

Your job is to make it easy for them to see the match. Do not make them work for it.

The easier you make their job, the better your chances.
