Statement on application forms

3 replies

Can anyone advise me, please:) I am filling out application forms and when it comes to the statement section I get stuck, I have written a statement and had it checked and looked at and corrected! However, many application forms ask for this section to be completed in accordance with the job description, so you have to go through each requirement and write the statement in that order - which I am struggling with because when I do this the words don't flow and it doesn't read very well. Is it really necessary to do this? Or Willis be acceptable to make sure I have covered each point in the statement but they aren't necessarily in the correct order? Nope that makes sense, any advice much appreciated - thank you:)

As long as you have covered all the requirements in the job description that's enough. I've never even heard anybody mention doing it in any particular order before and I've certainly never done it that way

Thank you - I am going to leave it as it is, on the application form it says refer to the points in the job description and write in that order, but it just reads wrong when I do that! I have covered all they asked for - thank you :) :)
