Application forms
Complete or submit your application on line. Employers prefer this because it is more cost effective and immediate.
Complete the questions first in a draft format. Make sure you spell check the draft then leave it and come back to it later. This will allow you to proof read and edit the document with a fresh mind.
Application forms, in the main, ask you to evidence you have the competencies for the particular job you’re applying for. This means the employer has broken the job down in to its separate tasks and has constructed questions which ask the applicant to evidence they are competent to complete this task. When answering this style of question ensure you use real life examples, preferably from work experiences as evidence you offer the particular competency, rather than hypothetical examples.
