Show us the real you: your application should reflect your skills, experience and motivations authentically.

Use AI wisely: it\'s fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don\'t let it write your answers. Applications that rely on AI generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements.

Tip: think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you - not an AI tool. Please note, we anticipate that the interviews for this advert will take place on Tuesday 28th April at the Comely Bank Centre in Edinburgh.
