Best Way to Incorporate an Example into Selection Criteria

Learning the best way to incorporate an example when responding to key selection criteria.

One of the challenges most jobseekers face when addressing key selection criteria is how best to weave into their selection criteria response an example that is relevant and applicable to the criteria itself and the role too. 

The example should be well-structured using the STAR format (Situation, Task, Action and Result) as well as being easy to read and follow, comprehensible and clear. 

That's also the way the team at Client Centric Executive Employment Solutions write their responses to selection criteria and include examples the right way.

Client Centric, an Australia-wide professional employment services firm offer a service where they will address the key selection criteria for you, and all you have to do is provide them with a copy of your resume, the position description and any relevant working examples, which they can email you as to what they need to know. 

It's pretty straightforward and that's what I love about the service that Client Centric provides. 

Addressing selection criteria isn't easy. But it's not impossible. Remember that the example needs to fit the selection criteria and not be too long-winded and boring. The last thing you want is for the reader to be turned-off because the example is totally irrelevant to the role and the needs of the organisation.

HOW TO ANSWER THE INTERVIEW QUESTION: Tell Me About Yourself

  “Tell me about yourself” is a job interview question that is guaranteed to come up in most of your job interviews. Since it’s often the first question to be asked in an interview, it’s your big chance to make a first impression. Many job searchers hate the “Tell me about yourself” question,” and as a result, don’t know how to prepare and don’t know how to give a strong answer. However, if you prepare correctly, there’s no reason to dread this question. In fact, this question is an opening for you to set the tone of the job interview and emphasize the points that you most want this potential employer to know about you. Don’t waste the opportunity by simply diving into a long recitation of your resume. This also isn’t the time to mention that you love dancing and bingo. Instead, try a concise, enthusiastic response that summarises your big-picture fit for the job. Why Interviewers Use “Tell Me About Yourself” When the interviewer asks you, “Tell me about yourself”, it’s an easy and op

The TOP 10 QUESTIONS every interviewer wants to be asked!

Ever wondered what kind of questions you could ask during a job interview? With the staff shortages plaguing many businesses in 2022 and continuing to be ongoing well into this year, many job seekers are finding it easier to secure a job interview. However, the job interview is not like it used to be anymore.  Matthew Coppola, Consultant and Interview Coach at ClientCentric , says that used to be all about the interviewer interviewing the interviewee, until now.  Now, the tables have turned. In today's current job market, the interviewee is invariably interviewing the interviewer to make sure that the job is the right fit for them and that they're going to be happy and contempt with what is on offer.

Should you use the same cover letter for every job applied?

When we are job searching, we usually apply for more than one job. Many people send a generic and standard letter and send it out to all positions they want to apply for. This is a quicker and easier option; however, it could also not capture the attention of the employer. When you tailor your cover letter for each application, it demonstrates to the employer that you want to work for their organisation and what you can bring to the role, which will persuade them to consider you.
