Application Forms.

[BoomAM]

I swore years ago that i'd never post on matters like this. lol.

Anyway.
Im filling out a Job Application form, and after realising that doing it all typed from the provided template would leave 90% of it looking very messy, i printed it out, filled almost all of it out by hand.

Now, my problem:
There is a section thats asking me to:
'Give specific deatils of how your knowledge, experiance, skills & abilites match the essential and deseriable criteria detailed in the personal specification'.
Now, how do i go about structuring this section?
Do i do it typed? even though the rest of the application is done by hand?
Do i do it as a 'personal statement'? or do i use short bullet points for each criteria?

Ideas please.

If the rest of it is done by hand then do this section by hand, very neatly and only put pen to paper when you have drafted it on scrap first.

Look at the person specification, listing how you meet each of the essential criteria for the position - giving reference to examples from your previous roles. Try to evidence your claims, but do not write massive amounts for each point.

So bullet it?
Or paragraph it?

I was considering a combination, of short paragraphs, 2-3 lines, and then when having to list something, like programming languages or network standards, have them bits bulleted.
