Skills

First and foremost can you clearly demonstrate a skillset?

Here are few traits employers may look for in a skillset.

• Have they done this type of project more than once?
• What kind of creative range do they have?

Dependability

Your skill is only as good as you are dependable. Employers would much rather hire someone reliable with low skill, rather than high skill and low reliability.
