It is really important to have an experience before to apply a real job, so that the employer will hire you anytime. This is the number one qualities that employers look into. Another thing, you need to show your accomplishment as well with your experience.

2. Punctuality. "Time is precious, time is gold". Time is running. The qualities that employer seek, would be the punctuality of a person. Being late and inconsistent with the work schedule will result into a big problem. Avoid lateness during the day of your interview.
