Wondering why some job applications go unanswered? It might be a skills gap. Here’s how to identify and close it:
Step 1: Compare Yourself to Target Roles – List your skills and experiences, then check job descriptions for must-have skills.
Step 2: Identify Gaps – Highlight areas where you’re missing expertise, certifications, or projects.
Step 3: Take Action – Pick courses, workshops, or mini-projects to fill the gaps.
Step 4: Track Progress – Update your resume and profile to reflect new skills. Tools like Leap can automate this analysis and give actionable recommendations.
💡 Quick Tip: Employers care about growth potential too. Show how you’re learning and adapting—it can make up for small gaps.
Closing skills gaps early sets you apart from other applicants and positions you for meaningful, high-fit opportunities.
