To get yourself noticed, go above and beyond
For my first job in television, I wanted to make myself stand out amongst the

I sent my potential employers a pizza with the following message printed in the lid "Wanted to give you a pizza my mind and say thanks for the interview". Research is key. Find out all you can about the job you are going for and the people who are ultimately responsible for making the decisions.
