Looking at an application for a position with a local authority. I’m used to central government applications, which involve providing specific examples of meeting specific competencies, this one just says “what experience do you have that makes you the right person for the role”
Anyone suggest the best way of approaching this – I can look at providing examples against their stated competencies, or I can give examples against the key responsibilities under the job description, or I can give examples against the different areas of the person spec.
Trying to hit all the points across all their different requirements runs the risk of turning a short essay into a full dissertation – is there a preferred way of structuring an appropriate response to such a vague question?
Cheers
