Hints and tips for applying
How to respond to the criteria in your statement of claims
We recommend you use the 'STAR' model to write your statement of claims.
STAR model
The STAR model asks you to answer some specific questions, giving examples of when and how you have used your skills.
-
Situation—Set the context by describing the circumstance where you used the skills or qualities and gained the experience.
-
Task—What was your role?
-
Actions—What did you do and how did you do it?
-
Results—What did you achieve? What was the end result and how does it relate to the job you are applying for?
When writing your response:
- Use examples from work, university or other areas of your life
- Focus on your own involvement in various situations (use 'I' rather than 'we')
- Provide recent examples wherever possible
- Use examples that have a clear beginning, middle and end
