Support shaped around the role
Every application starts with the role requirements, the level of the position and the material you already have. We assess the gap between what the panel needs to see and what your current application demonstrates, then recommend the right level of support.
Support may include:
- a role-aligned resume;
- a pitch statement or targeted cover letter;
- selection criteria or targeted-question responses;
- review of a self-written or AI-assisted draft;
- STAR evidence development; and
- public-sector interview preparation.
What selection panels assess
Selection panels assess the relevance, scope and impact of your evidence—not simply whether the application reads well. Strong applications make it easy to understand your contribution, judgement and readiness for the role.
We help you strengthen:
- alignment between your evidence and the role requirements;
- ownership of actions and decisions;
- stakeholder and operating context;
- measurable outcomes and organisational impact;
- evidence at the right APS, EL or SES level; and
- consistency across the resume, pitch, criteria and interview examples.
Full support or focused review
PRA can develop the application with you or provide targeted review where you have already prepared a draft. AI can help you write. It cannot assess whether your evidence is relevant, sufficiently senior or persuasive to a selection panel. Our role is to provide that judgement and a clear next step.
Frequently asked questions
Do you only support Australian Government applications?
No. We support APS, state and local government, universities, statutory authorities, not-for-profit organisations and other public-purpose employers.
Can you review an application I wrote myself or with AI?
Yes. We review the evidence, role alignment, seniority, structure and consistency of the application and explain what should change before submission.
Can you help with the full application?
Yes. Depending on the role and your material, support can cover the resume, pitch or cover letter, selection criteria, targeted questions and interview preparation.
