Did you meet every selection criterion?
Did the panel still call you not competitive?
Did you answer every box, and they still said you were not at the level?
That’s the pain
This happens a lot in public service jobs and government jobs. You answered every selection criterion. You used STAR. You filled the word count. The email still says not competitive. Or suitable, but not competitive. You met the list. They did not mark you as someone they can put in the role.
A panel is not marking whether you wrote something in every box. They want a week they can score at the level of the job. A thin example in every criterion still reads as not competitive.
A score will not fix it
A free ATS score will not write selection criteria. It will not turn a ticked list into a competitive statement.
If you want the score, use the free ATS score.
How we fix it
Send the ad, the statement, and what the panel said. We write the week they can mark at the level of the job. AI can fill every box. A human desk writes the example a panel can score as competitive.
That is human work. If you want a person on it, see pricing for the writing. The selection criteria page is that work.
