Looking for some guidance on what to include in your resume and cover letter?

• Highlight your key experiences and skill set related to the role in your resume
• Your cover letter should highlight your skills and experiences and what motivates you, in line with the above ‘who are you’ section and outline the how, not just the what within these criterion
• Help us get to know you in your cover letter; tell us a bit about who you are and what drives you! For example, what’s your favourite hobby? How do you spend time outside of work?
• Get creative! If you want to communicate your skills through a presentation or another medium, such as a video, go for it! You’re not assessed on creativity so if this isn’t up your alley, there is no need to. We just want you to communicate in the way that best suits you to sell yourself.

We will consider all applications, but help yourself stand out and for us to get to know you, by including a cover letter and resume tailored to the role as above.
