We will evaluate your application on how well you can meet and demonstrate the critieria listed on the person specification for the role you are applying for. You can read some helpful hints and tips below:
• Make sure you complete all parts of the application form, including giving a full work, unemployment and/or education history. You should include details of duties and responsibilities, transferable experience and knowledge, and information about any achievements.
• You will be asked to provide reference information. We need you to supply reference details to cover at least the most recent three years worth of employment or education. Your referee must be contactable via a professional email address.
• To be shortlisted for the role, you need to provide detailed supporting information. In this information you should provide details and clear, real-life examples of how you meet or can demonstrate as many of the criteria on the person specification. Use the 'STARR' technique when writing your example - this means situation, task, action, result, and reflection.
• Think of the person specification critieria as an application checklist. You want to ensure you include as many exanples of how you meet/demonstrate all the essential and where possible the desirable critieria.
• Take the time to proof read your application before you press submit. Read it back to yourself and check it makes sense.
• Make yourself aware of the closing date of the advert. We do try to keep our adverts open for the full advertising period. We do sometimes, in the rare occasion, have to close recruitment early when a sufficient or a large number of applications have been received.
• If you are applying for multiple roles and are using the same application form, make sure you are tweaking the supporting information to the specific role you are applying for.
• Once you have submitted your application, keep and eye on your emails and Trac account for updates about your application. You will be notifed if your application has been shortlisted or not.
We hold application and apprenticeship support sessions every month, online. We cover how to create a Trac jobs account, how to complete your supporting information section of your application, an overview of our apprenticeships, and more. Visit the jobs event page to see upcoming dates and book your place.
