    How you meet the person specification


    Please read this guidance before continuing with the form
    In this section, we want to hear about your experience, skills and attributes. Give an example for each of the criteria to show how you meet each one. You can include relevant information from both employment and voluntary activities. The examples that you provide will be the basis for shortlisting, with each example being scored on the quality of the evidence it provides of how you meet the criteria. Not providing an answer or simply saying yes will score zero.

    Your examples should briefly describe the situation you were in, the task you had to do, what you did, why you did it, how you did it, the skills you used, what the result was and what impact the result had. Consider the following when writing your examples:

    * use an example that is relevant and recent
    * talk about I, not we - what action did you take, not you and your colleagues or team
    * make sure the examples of tasks and actions are as related to the criteria as possible
    * be concise - answers to all the criteria should be provided on no more than four pages

    Criminal Record


    This post is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Having a criminal conviction will not automatically prevent you from working for Conwy Mind. The position you are applying for involves contact with vulnerable adults and children and is therefore exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. For these positions you are not entitled to withhold information about any criminal convictions, including any that are considered ‘spent’. Please therefore ensure that you tell us about ALL convictions however minor you consider them to be.

    Do you have any criminal convictions? YesNo

    If you have answered yes, please record the date of conviction, court name, nature of offence and sentence imposed.

    References


    Please give the name and contact details of TWO referees. One should be your current/most recent employer (paid or voluntary). Family members cannot be referees. We need to ensure that references cover an adequate time period – ie both references are not from the same place of work. If you would like to have 2 referees from the same place of work, you must provide an additional third reference.
