Tips for applying for a job
General advice from us, the same for every job. It is not what this organisation says; that is above.
- Match your CV to this job: put the experience closest to what it asks for first, and use the same words the listing uses for the same things.
- For each thing the listing asks for, have one real example ready: where you did it, what you did, and what changed because of it.
- Informal work counts. Selling, tutoring, running a family shop, volunteering and caring for relatives all built real skills; say what you did plainly.
- If a cover letter is asked for, keep it to three short paragraphs: why this job, what you have done that fits, and when you can start.
If there is an interview or a test
- Read the listing again the day before, and the organisation's own about page.
- Prepare two or three short stories: a problem you solved, a time you learned something quickly, a time you worked with others.
- Have one or two questions ready for them, for example what the first three months in the role look like.
- For a call or video interview, test your data, battery and a quiet place beforehand. If your connection drops, call or write straight away.
All our tips and messages to copy. Practise answering, with nothing kept. Received an offer? Check whether it is real, then read before you say yes.
