• Show experience details clearly: Mention project names, voltage levels, project size, your role and dates. This helps in scoring and in the interview
• Prepare payslips and experience letters early. Some employers take time to issue them
• Use a smart, clear photo and signature in the right size and format
• Do not wait for the last day. The website may be slow near 6:30 PM on 17 November
