if you tell me the name of the job that you are applying for in the comments section below

this video, I will give you some more tips for helping you to complete your job application

form. Now, this is my promise to you… during this training video, I am going to give you

7 very important tips that disclose what the TOP 1 PERCENT of applicants do to always pass

their job application forms. I will also give you high scoring answers to the most common

job application form questions that are used by employers and hiring managers. And also,

this is very important… I will give you 8 powerful words and phrases that you have

to put on your application form to get invited to the next stage or the interview. So, that's

my promise to you, those three things. Please take notes, and please make sure you pay attention

as I go along. Now, on your job application form, you will be asked a question which goes

something like this. Please explain why you have applied for this post and what you have

to offer. So it is very, very important when we complete a job application form that we

follow the instructions and we actually answer the question… what do I mean by that? Well,

if we take a look at this application form question, it says, please explain why you

have applied for the post and also what you have to offer. So when we give them our answer,

we have to divide it up into two parts. We have to say… “I am applying for this post,

because…” and then give the reasons why and then move on to say, “what we have to

offer.” And I will give you an example answer that's been successful in the past, in a second.

But if you fail to answer the application form question, you will not proceed to the

next stages. And this is why a lot of people fail their application forms, because they

don't follow instructions and they don't actually answer the question. So, this is my suggested

answer for the application form question. Please explain why you've applied for the

post and what you have to offer. You will see that I have split it up into two parts.

Take notes as I write this down for you. Here we go. I am applying for this post because,

having researched the job description and person specification in detail, the experience,

skills and qualities I have are a strong match for the role. I have many years’ experience

within similar positions and I have always gone above and beyond what is required to

help my employer excel from a commercial and service delivery perspective. For example,

in my previous job I worked as part of team who helped the organization surpass its previous

sales revenues for three years running. I have to offer many qualities, skills and experiences

that I feel will benefit your organization. These include a positive work ethic, a constant

drive towards continuous improvement, being a loyal, supportive and cooperative team member,

and also being someone who can plan, organize and complete their work with the minimum of

supervision. I feel strongly that, if you hire me in the position of xxx, you will be

pleased with my knowledge, my levels of expertise and above all my enthusiasm and drive for

carrying out my duties to a very high standard. So, all you would need to do is change the

‘xxx’ for the title of the job that you are applying for. Now, obviously, you can

use that, but please do make sure that before you do you read it again and make sure all

the qualities and skills are applicable to the ones that you actually possess. But that

is an example of a successful job application form answer. Now, let me give you these 7

important tips for job application form success. Now these tips are what the TOP 1 PERCENT

of candidates do time and time again to pass their application forms. Please make sure

you take a note of them, read them and follow them. Because this is how you pass an application

form. Number one, always follow the guidance notes and the instructions carefully. So to

give you an example, the application form is actually a filtering process. When a job

is advertised that requires the completion of an application form, the assessor uses

this as a way to filter out lots of applicants, because there will be lots of people applying.

If you fill out the application form in the wrong color ink, for example, or if you exceed

the stated word count for the answers, you will not get through to the next stage because

that shows that you can't follow instructions, which is a very basic requirement of any job.

Tip number two, read the job description before you complete the application form. Now, why

do I say that? Well, this will then enable you to extract words and phrases from the

job description, and then you can use them in your answers on the application form. And

that's a really good thing to do, to make it easy for the person marking the application

form. At some stage during this tutorial, I'm going to give you 8 really strong keywords

and phrases that you can use that are a match for the majority of job descriptions. Let

me give you an example. If part of the role that you are applying for requires you to

WORK AS PART OF A TEAM, then you would say on your application form: I have many years’

experience of working as part of a team to achieve difficult and time sensitive tasks

and projects. Then you are aligning your skills and qualities to the essential requirements

of the role, hence making it easy for the person who is marking your application form.

Tip number three. Grammar, spelling and punctuation form part of the application form scoring

criteria. So, make sure you read your application form carefully before you submit it. But more

importantly, ask someone who is qualified, to read over it for you to check for any errors.

Because if there are errors within grammar, spelling and punctuation, you are basically

making it easy for the person to say, “that's no good!” because you can't write correctly

or follow simple instructions. Number four, give evidence of how your skills and qualities

are a match for the role. So anybody can say I am good at working under pressure, but backing

it up with evidence is a different matter altogether! So for example, if you are required

within the role to be good at customer service and care, anybody can write down on an application

form: “I am competent in delivering great customer service”, but backing it up is

a different matter altogether. So let me give you an example. “I have many years’ experience

delivering high quality customer service and care. For example, in a previous job, I was

the first point of contact for all valued customers and I had set goals I needed to

achieve in terms of customer service standards.” That is saying that you are good at customer

service, and then giving an example i.e. giving evidence. Tip number five, put down the names

of references. If you are required to give a reference i.e. somebody who supports your

application, do not put “available upon request.” This is what the majority of people

will do. However, if you put down the names of references on your application form, actual

names and contact details, it proves you and that person are CONFIDENT in your ability

to do the job. Virtually all application forms that I read in the past would say “available

upon request”, and it just tells me that you don't want to give a reference yet. Therefore,

how do I know that you can really carry out the job correctly? So, my advice is to always

make sure you put down two references. The names of the people who will support you in

your application. Number six, choose these hobbies and interests to show on your application

form that you are a highly employable person. Sometimes, on job application forms, it tells

you to state what you do in your spare time. What are your hobbies and interests? These
