1. No Self-Censorship.
Job offers are all more or less standardized. And it is rare that one corresponds to all the criteria. So you shouldn't self-censor, especially when you are a beginner, because you feel too far from the prerequisites of the announcement. Keep in mind that some offers for experienced executives are sometimes filled by recent graduates.
2. Find your common points with the profile.
First, try to identify the experience, among your internships, that is closest to the missions requested in the announcement. When you take the time to analyze them, there are almost always links or bridges between two sectors or two functions that seem very far apart at first. It's up to you to then find what, in your curriculum, and even in your small jobs, can bring you closer to the position.
3. Choose the unsolicited application.
Your profile does not match at all the one sought, but the company or the position interests you a lot? Use the address in the announcement to send an unsolicited application.
