Most government job competitions—certainly for entry-level officer positions, and often for promotions as well—require candidates to submit a written statement-of-interest when applying. The length varies depending on the Department or Agency involved, and in some cases more than a single statement is demanded: one to explain your qualifications for the position, another for competencies you have demonstrated relevant to the work.

During the 2-hour covering our pre-work and personal coaching you will benefit from:

• Informed advice on the purpose and evaluation of statements-of-interest
  
• Precise instruction on which government documents to rely on in planning your statement(s)
  
• An analytical framework which draws out your assets in relation to specific job requirements
  
• Tips on what to avoid including, and how to use your writing time and the space available to your advantage
  
• A detailed, annotated critique of your initial draft statement
  
• A telephone consultation to finalize your statement carefully before you submit it in the competition
