I’m a civil servant at HEO level and have been applying for SEO roles in my department and other departments. I’m keen to stay in my department if possible.
I’m starting to feel deflated though as I’ve now had 3 interviews in my department for temporary roles (EOIs). Although I’ve made an effort to learn from each interview and the feedback has been better each time, I don’t feel closer to securing a role. I realise it’s also a difficult jobs market.
I just got feedback today for an interview last week, where I scored 4, 5 and 5 on the 3 behaviours and 3 on the strength question.
Very grateful for any advice and encouragement please, as I was really keen on this role - and the previous one I applied for - and am worried a similar interesting opportunity in my department won’t come around any time soon.
