    The video discusses three strategies for job applicants to highlight their abilities rather than experience when looking for work: (1) focus interviews on stories that illustrate character traits like curiosity and resilience rather than resume points, (2) have applicants explain how they would approach open-ended problems to see their thought processes, and (3) give hypothetical scenarios to see how applicants communicate and work with others rather than what they have already done.
