What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
Apply early, and take your time over the application form. It is not unreasonable to spend an hour a day for a week filling out a job application.
Make sure your application "talks to" the company's values.
Write your application in an easy to digest way, bulleted lists are generally better than continuous prose.
Think about competancy style/soft skill questions. Have a number of examples of experiences you can use which demonstarte a diverse range of competancies in different environments.
Remember anything you put in your application is likely to be talked about at interview. Be prepared to expand.
Do you have any interview tips?
As above, be prepared with a number of examples of experiences which demonstrate soft skill compenancies. Think about key values the company has, eg is teamwork specifically mentioned on their website? Also think of competancies which play to your particular strengths, perhaps you have a lot of experience of leadership, or communicating through public speaking etc. Be prepared for the question about a weakness and how you overcome it.
Technical interviews are not designed to catch you out, revise if it makes you more comfortable but it shouldn't be necessary. I didn't. They just want to find out how much you know, how much you can work out with guidance beyond your current knowledge.
Dress smart, arrive early, be polite and courteous.
Try to relax and be yourself!
