[QUOTE="Darth Vader, post: 95397, member: 18802"] I'm currently answering the question 'At RPC we work in a collaborative, forward thinking environment. Provide an example when you have demonstrated your ability to collaborate or have shown yourself to be forward thinking. You may want to make references to your hobbies, interests and/or work experience to illustrate your answer' (300 words). I've got three examples that will take up 100 words each. My approach is to outline how I was 'collaborative' or 'forward thinking' by outlining a scenario, describing how I tackled it and explaining my thought-process in detail. I'm trying to follow the 'show don't tell' approach. I'm wondering if RPC wants me to add the extra step of linking how my experience relates to working for them? I'm worried about doing this because the question doesn't ask this of me, so I'm assuming the recruiters just want me to discuss my experiences and then they can judge for themselves if I come across as someone who meets their 'collaborative' and 'forward thinking' values. Side question: do I say 'as Events Manager for x' or 'as events manager for x', I'm not sure if capitalisation of my post gets points deducted for grammar. [/QUOTE]
