How to get top jobs in Iran?

Improve your chances of getting a good job

Our mission in IranTalent is to help our candidates find the right job. To get a job with any of our clients, of course you must have the right skills and qualifications. However, it is not enough to be qualified - you must also be able to show that you are qualified.

To help you do this, we have put together a list of skills and attributes that our employers typically look for, and how you can show if you have these skills.

Skills & attributes What you need to show as evidence Problem solving Graduating from a good university Graduating from an analytical subject (e.g. engineering) Good grades or ranking at university or high school Giving well-thought structured answers to questions at interview Written communication Good quality, clear and concise CV Oral communication Speaking clearly and articulately at the interview Not being nervous Attention to detail Clean CV, nicely formatted and with no spelling errors Being clean dressed at interview Teamwork and people skills Conducting yourself well at interview Responsibility and achievements at previous jobs Your hobbies (e.g. any team sports) English language Speaking clearly and confidently in interview Correct spelling and grammar of CV Professionalism Arriving on time Speaking politely Being appropriately dressed / not being sloppy Job-specific skills Relevant degree or academic qualifications Relevant certificates (e.g. CIMA, Cisco, FCE) Previous experience doing the same job Drive and motivation Being passionate at the interview about the job Knowing something about the company Detailed and well-thought out CV Track record of career achievements so far Non-academic activities at university

This is just to give you an idea. Don't worry if you do not have all of these to show the employer. Sometimes if you think hard enough you will find close equivalents that can prove the same point. For example, if you do not have good qualifications from a top university, it is not the end of the world. Perhaps you worked on a very challenging project, or in your previous job were responsible for programming a very complex system? Each of these can potentially show the employer that you have good problem solving skills.

Alternatively, if you do not have several years of work experience, you can still improve your chances of getting the job by showing your English and communications skills at the interview, your ability to work well in a team, and your energy and motivation.Try to know yourself and your accomplishments so you can convince the employer that you are their man/woman. Be yourself at your best!
