Hi Rana, I wanted to ask: what differentiates candidates who move forward in the process from those who don’t?

Dear Idriss,

Thanks for connecting with me on Insider—it’s great to meet you. Candidates who typically progress to the next stage tend to show a strong match between their experience/skillset and the role requirements. This is usually reflected through a well‑structured CV that clearly highlights relevant skills and, where possible, quantifies the impact they’ve made in previous roles.

I hope that helps, and I'm always here if you have any further questions.
