How to do a Key Selection Criteria Response the Proper Way

When writing excellent key selection criteria responses, to do it properly, there are some simple steps to follow.

Use good examples.

First and foremost, you want to make sure that you have one or two good examples that you can include in your response. The example/s must be relevant, solid and concise. Don’t waffle on, and most importantly, actually answer the criteria.

Use the STAR method too!

WRITE LEGIBLY.

Secondly, it’s equally important to write legibly.

Take into consideration who will be reading your cover letter. You want the employer to be impressed by your writing skills, not deterred. For this very reason, Client Centric write professional responses to key selection criteria to take the stress and worry away from people.
