Elevator Pitch for ITS Capstone for a System Analyst position
An elevator pitch is a brief, persuasive speech that you use to spark interest in you as a job seeker. An effective elevator pitch should last no longer than 30 seconds, which is the duration of a typical elevator ride, hence the name. An elevator pitch should be optimized to quickly capture the attention of its targeted audience. It needs to explain what makes you a unique candidate who can add value to the hiring organization. A best practice in creating an elevator pitch is to include four essential elements that you can customize to match your personal attributes and job-seeking needs. These are:
- Skills: what do I do well?
