The job application process in Malta is probably different from what you are used to at home. Here are some tips for successful applications.
During the application and interview process speculate about the company and the position you are applying for. Establish early contact with the company that you are interested in. This shows dedication and also means that the company has a face to go with your name. As competition is fierce for jobs in Malta, it helps to be straightforward during your applications.

Throughout the interview, highlight your educational achievements and experience. Constantly relate this to the job you are applying for (e.g. how it will benefit the company etc.).
