A Note on AIAI tools can be great for research and refining ideas, but we want to learn about you. If you use AI or Chatbots to help you with your application, keep these points in mind:

•        AI can support research, structuring and refining your writing, but your application must  reflect your real skills and experience .
•        Spell-checking and condensing word counts are great ways to use AI effectively.
•        Do not  copy and paste AI generated answers. These will not help you stand out; remember we want to hear about your skills and experience.
•        Providing false and insincere examples goes against our core values of honesty and integrity and may lead to your application being withdrawn  or termination of your employment.
