Training, further training and continuing education
The beginning is always the hardest. This is particularly true when starting out in a new profession. Most people find it difficult to skilfully showcase their strengths every single time. The letter of application can be the first obstacle here already. Many applicants hesitate since they know that they will need to live up to certain standards to avoid disappearing into the crowd. This uncertainty causes most people to either do nothing at all, or to approach the entire matter incorrectly, ruining their chances. That’s a pity! We at “DSF” believe that this reluctance is unnecessary and based solely on lack of knowledge. This situation should be converted into something positive.
