Tell a story
Companies are people. People like stories. You can tell one and prove you're worth hiring.
You ran a marathon? Tell the story of how you persevered.
You worked at a preschool? Tell the story of offering patience or empathy.
You went to Thailand with no money? Tell the story.

Release your grip on job titles, statuses, and bullet points.
Be human.
