Medical and Social Care

Application Advice: Make sure to be detailed - provide examples of how you have demonstrated the qualities you claim to possess in a work environment. Also talk about what attracts you to the Blue Badge service, NOT KCC as a whole. There is no word limit so take advantage of that. The "Reason for applying" question should really be named the "Why we should hire you" question because that's really what they're asking.

Interview Advice: Wear a nice shirt (my interview was over MS Teams so it didn't matter what trousers I wore). I was asked questions about my experience with different IT software e.g Excel, my knowledge of GDPR, and more general questions about my skillset and what skills I used at my previous job.
