I'm hoping any civil servants can help. I have been offered an interview for a HEO position which will be on promotion from an EO role in a different dept which I have been doing for 7 months.
I was an AO after graduating in different roles for nearly 3 years and 'acted up' for some of that time (about a year) to EO level. I really want this particular job as it is in an area I want to move to for family reasons and there are very few non-specialist opportunities in the region. It would also be valuable experience.
I feel extremely nervous as I'm not sure I have been at EO level long enough to move up (despite getting good feedback and being reasonably confident in my current role). Also despite being offered an interview, my competencies didn't receive brilliant feedback so I don't feel that confident in relying on them. I don't really have any relevant experience pre- degree either, just what I have gained in the civil service so far.
Any tips on how to show I have the capability to do a HEO role in interview and what the panel would be looking for in a HEO candidate compared to in lower grades? It will be an ops role. Thank you!
