5.   Apply for the job

Bear in mind that employers rarely get the ideal or perfect candidate for any job. They often settle for the best from the pool of applicants. Furthermore, a well experienced M&E professional with more than 5 years experience most likely will not apply for an entry-level M&E post of a certain salary. Chances are you are competing with persons with the same amount (or absence of) experience as yourself. The playing field is level, as such, JUST DO IT!
