Data entry jobs are generally considered to be easy jobs, and so there will be a lot of people applying for any position going. This is, however, a misconception. The skills required are particular, like in any other job you apply for and if you make sure you read through your application carefully, you can quite easily make your CV easy to pick out from the rest.
Your typing and computer skills are very important here, because you will be working with computers every day. If you are invited for an interview, there is a high chance you will be asked to show your typing skills. Employers will look for someone who can type quickly, but, most importantly, accurately as well. If you have any qualifications to prove your skills at this, make sure you highlight them on your application. This will be greatly advantageous for you and help you in your quest for a job.
Any experience you have will be very useful, because it will show a prospective employer that you already have the skills required. Make sure you accurately describe what you did in your previous job, highlighting any areas you think would be useful for your application. If the job description mentioned something in particular that is required and you know you have done it already, make sure you show this on your application. You need to make your CV stand out from the others and proof that you have done this sort of job before will be a large step towards this.
If you've taken the time to complete your application properly, you will greatly increase your chances of getting the job. Reading through what is required, and taking the time to make sure it is included in your application and cover letter, is time well spent. Your CV is your first chance to catch an employer's attention and if you highlight key skills that will be useful in the application, you will gain a prospective employers interest and increase your chances of being asked back for an interview.
