A simple step-by-step, easy-to-follow system guaranteed to help you secure interviews easily and consistently in the public service sector

. . . . and LAND YOU THE JOB YOU WANT!

Carolyn Smith, shows you exactly what steps to take (and reveals the secrets that no one else is telling you!) in her E-Manual 'How to GET IN and GET PROMOTED in the Public Service Sector'. 

There is only ONE way to GET IN and GET PROMOTED in the public service sector and that is you must develop strong claims to selection criteria, so that you are seen as the MUST HAVE candidate.

Once you do, imagine... 

  • Attracting interviews like crazy, so you can select from a range of roles, rather than having to settle for second best.
  • Securing a promotion and gaining the respect, attention, and support from selection panel members, clients and your peers.
  • Finally getting into the public service sector, enjoying the benefits of a challenging career, with unlimited scope for advancement and progression.

But, here's the problem...

The OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF CANDIDATES that apply for roles in the public service sector will NOT be selected for interview, even if they are the most suitably qualified candidate.

Unless you know exactly what is required of you, possess the tools and take the steps required of you, it can be downright difficult, if not impossible to even secure an interview …

You see, many popular positions in government can receive up to 1,600 candidates and even if the position is not that popular, it is still not uncommon for a selection panel committee to receive up to 40 applications from suitably qualified applicants.  (In fact the average is that around 50 candidates will be applying for exactly the same role as YOU).

What this means to you as a candidate, is that unless you write an application that scores sufficient points and in a way that incorporates the agency’s requirements, then you will not be selected for interview.

But it doesn't have to be...

Finally, YOU can write an application that will secure INTERVIEWS in the public service sector!

I'm Carolyn Smith and my step-by-step manual  — "How to GET IN and GET Promoted in the Public Service Sector, will reveal to you the easy, "connect-the-dots" system for planning, writing, and submitting an application that WILL help you secure your interview, so you can GET IN and GET PROMOTED in the Public Service Sector.

In my e-manual, I not only clearly outline the system, but I share with you, all my TRADE SECRETS … so you don’t have to spend years learning to perfect the art of addressing selection criteria for government and non-government applications. 

 

In this E-Manual, I reveal what really happens during the selection process!

  • What agencies and professional recruiters DON’T want to tell you about the selection process - (I’m falling foul with the politically correct version of the MERIT selection process outlined in other how to guides and government sites, and I’m sure I won’t get a contract with government for spilling the beans, - but I really want YOU to know what the reality is and the nitty gritty behind the selection process).
  • The steps you MUST TAKE, before you even decide whether it is worth applying for the role.  This is really crucial, as it could make or break your application.
  • Why the process is viewed by many as less than transparent, fair and incapable of selecting the best candidate and why understanding this will ensure you get the interview.

You won’t find this information so clearly spelled out anywhere else, and this information alone is probably worth the cover price.   

Since 2003, I have been helping clients get in and get promoted in the public service sector.  My clients are intelligent, motivated, very good at what they do, but they come to me, because they are tired of receiving rejection letters, or understand that it is essential to develop an airtight application to ward off the competition, when applying for a promotion.  

Some of my clients have even referred to me as the “Master of Selection Criteria”

Hi Carolyn!   Not sure if I remembered to pass on the news to you, but I was successful in winning the APS6 position.   Thanks again for helping me with my selection criteria document. There were about 190 applicants - apparently I rated in the top 3 for the written application part. Ian – Team Leader

 

Hi Carolyn, Looks like your 100% record is intact, I have just had an interview for the EL-1 at level and have one scheduled for the 20th for the EL-2.  Craig, Technical Specialist/Executive Defence.

 

Hi Carolyn, The reason for my email is to let you know that I received a call this morning from Customs offering me the position we applied for. So I thought you should know that you're work and my investment has paid off a good profit.  Chris – Senior Manager

 

 Dear Carolyn,  I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help with my SC - as you can see I've got the job and today is my second day.  I'm very excited about the new experiences and possibilities.  I believe that commissioning you in this matter was the BEST investment in my career development.  Irina – Senior Marketing Manager

But it was not always that way… 

After returning from the United Kingdom in early 2002 – I was buoyed with optimism, after working for the largest law firm in the world and getting global experience, with international giants such as the International Finance Corporation, ABN AMRO, British Rail, Citibank, World Bank, Shell and BP, to name a few.  I was supremely confident that I could easily secure a job in the public service sector, after all, if I could write a successful proposal for US billion dollar projects for the corporate giants of the world, I could easily write an application for state and federal government.  Oh, how WRONG I was and SEVERAL REJECTION LETTERS later and feeling very frustrated and depressed with the process, I realised you really needed to be ‘in the know’ to successfully secure interviews in the public service sector.   

MOVE FORWARD TO TODAY and I have an intimate understanding of the system, and I have lost count of the number of applications I have reviewed and I have personally writen thousands of successful applications, right through to the senior executive level. In fact I know so much about the system now that my success rate for securing interviews for my clients is 100% for very similar jobs I applied for and received rejection letters for, way back in 2002.

In this E-Manual, I Guide You through the Entire Process...
Step by Step, From Start to Finish

  • The 7 steps you must take in order to write compelling and convincing selection criteria.
  • How to decipher complex selection criteria (including criteria containing several sub-criteria)
  • What you must do to select the best possible referees (This is usually overlooked by candidates, but I will tell you why this is SO important and how you can select the best referees).
  • What advertising copy and writing selection criteria have in common (yes I know this one sounds weird, but truly selection criteria is a form of marketing  / advertising copy, and the product you are selling is YOU)
  • How to identify your hard and soft skills, including a comprehensive identification check list.
  • What NOT to include in your resume and how to create a resume specifically for the public service sector.

  • What are public service sector values and how you need to effectively incorporate them in your application, even if you don’t have to directly address them in a specific criterion.
