In preparing your response to the Key Selection Criteria please take into account the information contained in the Job Description located on the Job Information Page. Please limit responses for each criterion to no more than 500 words.

Formatting tips

· Use plain text, do not use bolding or underlining.

· If you want to use dot/bullet points, indicate these by using asterisks (*) or dashes (-).

Ideally you should prepare responses in a Word document first utilising the:

· spell check function, as there is no facility in this online form

· word count function, to ensure your responses are within the limit (if applicable), and;

Check the formatting before you submit your application as some formatting features may be lost when you cut and paste from word. Ensure you save your work regularly.
