ذات خبرة مهنية/عملية
Professional as an adjective means relating to your job or work and not to your private life:
"ستستطيعين أن تقدمي نفسك كسيدة عملية شابة ذات خبرة مهنية"
"ستستطيعين تقديم نفسك باعتبارك سيدة عملية شابة تتمتع بخبرة مهنية"

كُفء
I know that thew first translations possible that come to mind are "-مُحْتَرِف- or -مُمْتَهِن-" But here the real sense of the word -professional- is -competent-.
Good luck

Needless to say that here it would be in femenine: كفؤة
Sorry I left it in masculine.
