DWP state that they usually suggest people refer to the EO Microsite for information on applying. Whilst most information is still relevant, it is worth noting that this advert requests a written example on the civil service behaviour ‘Making Effective Decisions’ and not ‘communicating and influencing’ (as noted on the microsite).

For assistance with a Civil Service job application, please contact HIVE for support resources, or contact Forces Employment Charity to request a mentor.
