interviewing skills

The key things to show in an interview, when you have very little professional experience are:
Personality
Resilience
Thinking outside the box
Times you've been out of your comfort zone
Team work
Passion
Whether this is through sports, travelling, internships or being the oldest of 5 children. If you give examples of how you've pushed yourself and used your initiative, you'll stand out. Also, remember to smile, charisma can take you far.

leadership skills

I really believe that failing at something is the only way of learning something truly new. As long as you can weather some tough times with relentless optimism, there is never a bad time to throw yourself in at the deep end and take some risks. You might fail - in fact there will certainly be things that don't work as you expect - but the more you expose yourself to risk... the more you'll reap in return. There is never a good time to do something different. So you might as well do it now.

presentation skills

The best speaker is present in the room and ready to have a conversation.
It’s not magic but practice. Be prepared. Think about what the conversation is about and what you want to achieve. Don’t forget how others might be thinking.
Be confident.
Collaborate. You don’t have to know it all. Be honest about what you know and ask others.

salary negotiation skills

According to several surveys, the best time to ask for a raise is on Friday and specifically in the morning. If you're not a morning person, become one (for the day).
