GUIDANCE NOTES FOR JOB APPLICANTS

DATA PROTECTION STATEMENT:

The information that you provide on this form and that obtained from other relevant sources will be used to process your application for employment with the School. The personal information that you give us will also be used in a confidential manner to help us monitor our recruitment process.

If you succeed in your application and take up employment with the School, the information will be used in the administration of your employment with us and to provide you with information about the School, via your payslip. We may also use the information if there is a complaint or legal challenge relevant to this recruitment process.

We may check the information collected, with third parties or with other information held by us. We may also use or pass to certain third parties information to prevent or detect crime, to protect public funds, or in other ways as permitted by law.

By signing the application form it will be assumed by the School that you agree to the processing of sensitive personal data, (as described above), in accordance with the School’s registration with the Data Protection Commissioner.

HOW TO COMPLETE YOUR APPLICATION: Please read the following guidance notes carefully, before completing your application form, they will help you complete the form as effectively as possible and ensure your application is treated fairly.

Note: We are unable to consider a Curriculum Vitae (CV). The documents used in the process of selecting new employees are as follows;

A Job Description, A Person Specification, An Application Form

This process helps to ensure that all applications are treated fairly, “every appointment of a person to paid employment shall be on merit”.

Job DescriptionThis document sets out the main responsibilities and duties of the post.

Person SpecificationThis is the most important document, it sets out exactly what knowledge, skills and experience are needed to do the job.

‘Essential criteria’ are those that are mandatory, in order to successfully carry out the responsibilities of the post. The Person Specification will demonstrate which criteria we will use to shortlist candidates for interview.

Company No. 08149796

‘Desirable criteria’ may also be included. These are extra requirements, which may be considered if we receive a large number of applications that meet the ‘essential criteria’.

Application FormWhen filling in the application form, either type or write clearly in BLACK ink. It is a good idea to make a rough draft first. Check through the draft to ensure that it is clear and covers all the criteria set out in the Person Specification. As we are unable to guess or assume anything about you, please make sure you provide all the information we need, under the different section headings, as set out in the application form. You may find it easier to attach word-processed sections on ‘Employment History’ and ‘Relevant Knowledge, Skills and Experience’ to your application form.
