Please submit your CV and Cover Letter in a .pdf format. Other file formats will not be accepted.
Use the cover letter to demonstrate your motivation for applying. Don't waste the space repeating information in your CV - focus on the 'why you are applying'. The Cover Letter is your opportunity to really stand out and share who you are, show a little personality!We recommend no more than one page for a cover letter.
Please don't. We know that in some cultures this is common but we would strongly discourage this. Your CV should include relevant qualifications, skills and experiences. None of our roles are impacted by your looks and adding a photo takes up valuable space. Also, your age is not important at the application stage. We will only ask for a date of birth when we need it but otherwise, we recommend keeping out any information that we do not need to understand if you would be right for the role you are applying for.
In short, yes! Although, you will obviously have a disadvantage against experienced candidates - don't let this discourage you though. We recommend focusing on what transferable skills you have, what you have done outside of work that is relevant and, most importantly, your motivation for applying anyway.
Sometimes we need to fill a role fast or we need to fill the role with multiple people. When we set a closing date as 'Rolling' then we will close it as soon as we fill the position. We recommend jumping on these opportunities sooner rather than later - they may close without notice. If you don't hear back from us or would like to ask more about the rolling close date then feel free to reach out via social media for more information.
Some top tips to give you the best chance at getting a role in our team.
When filtering 400+ applications per role, you can imagine that patience wears thin (we are only human) and so small and basic mistakes can become surpisingly frustrating. E.g. grammar, generic cover letter, inconsistent fonts, etc...
This reflects you work so check before submitting!
After looking at so many applications, it can be refreshing to see something different. This can be through use of language, use of personal branding, or sharing photos and videos of previous work that you are proud of. Whatever it is, express yourself and stand out!
Whether it is simply choosing the right font and colour, the layout of the documents, or choosing more concise language with improved clarity and brevity, your cover letter and CV need to be easy to read. Write it as you normally speak, not like your university submissions.
Everyone uses the same buzzwords - we do it too in our job specification. Sometimes, those are the right words and the nature of job applications. So, if you want to stand out - justify the content. For example, anyone can describe themselves as 'a good leader' but until you follow it up with your specific experience that proves it, then we no reason to believe it is true.
