Like those positions with titles of

analyst (policy)
executive (business services)
project manager
executive (projects)
etc


I think they're quite generic, so how would one in these jobs make themselves stand out among other candidates in even getting selected for an interview? In an ideal situation one would have experience directly related to the new job, (like an IT person in an end-user organization applying for an IT developer job in the developer's company), but of course these situations are the minority.
how about: managed to accumulate 229 posts in an online discussion forum while pretending to work during office hours....
