Completed assessment for one of the big prop physical trading houses. Need some advice to highlight my application to the hiring managers.

Some professionals from physical trading were very active on WSO back in the day. I don't think they are as active now so I am creating this post. Will appreciate if anyone working in Traf, Glencore  etc  could advice on how to make my application standout.
