Need some help making your mad skillz look as obvious on paper as they do in person so you can rise out of the crowd? All you need to do to join the Justice League is present yourself as the Career Superhero that you are. Many programs and positions require transferable rather than specific skills, which you’ve gained through your work, academic, volunteer, leadership and extracurricular experiences. Still missing some necessary skills and experience or looking to expand on your portfolio? We’ve also got some tips to help you develop your superhero powers. Now you just need to find a phonebooth and change into your spandex.
