Our editorial advice · not employer requirements

How to prepare a stronger application

For genomics, data or engineering work, prepare a project explanation that separates the biological or user question from the tool and shows how you validated the output.

For corporate or operations roles, show how your work improved a decision, process or stakeholder outcome. Connect it to the selected team rather than describing genomics in general.
