Writing your application

Once you have found a position you wish to apply for, you need to make sure your application does you justice and provides you with the best possible chance of getting an interview.

• It is vital that you carefully read the job description and person specification as your answers may be scored against the requirements listed here.
• Take your time over your application and ensure that your answers demonstrate your skills and experience, as well as your values.
• Be concise in your application and keep your responses relevant to the role and the question.
• Complete every section and try not to leave areas blank unless they are not required.
• And finally, re-read your application before submitting and check for spelling and grammar.
