I am under qualified for a job that I KNOW I can do. They’ve asked for a certain number of years of experience and I don’t have it. However, I do have some experience in the exact requirements for the role. What can I do to position myself to get an interview from my resume alone? Should I add a cover letter? What should I include? I have 2-3 YOE, but they’re asking for 5.

Hi everyone, hoping and wondering if I could get any help with the deal memo part for O1 ? It’s hard explaining the recruiters about it.

I feel so anxious that they’ll hear my son in the background if he cries or something. I keep thinking they might think I’m unprofessional. Writing this out to let my anxiety out a little.
