BackUnifrog recruitment process: Stage 1 APPLICATION FORM

Our application forms typically consist of three application questions:

First a note about AI. Your answers are an opportunity to let us know more about your motivations and experience, and we strongly encourage you to write your answers independently.

We compare all answers to an AI generated answer, and through reviewing many applications we easily spot similarities between answers that have been artificially generated. Where we can see that AI has been used to write a significant amount of an answer, we take this into consideration when scoring.

Here are three questions we very often ask. Depending on the role you are applying to, instead of one of the questions below, we might ask you to provide us with examples of your work (for example, a lesson plan you have designed, or a video that you have edited). 


‘Tell us about your relevant experience, and why this would make you an excellent candidate for the role.’

• You should include specific examples of your experience - for example, roles you have had in the past, what your responsibilities have been, and times where you have made an impact.
• You only have 250 words to play with so we recommend that you only include your most relevant and recent job roles.
• This question is also an opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the job description.

'Tell us about a time when you have had to ….. what was your approach?’

• This question will ask you to tell us about a time when you have had to demonstrate one of the competencies we are looking for.
• It is a chance for you to focus on one specific example with lots of detail.
• We recommend using the STAR technique when answering this type of question
  • S- what was the situation?
  • T- what was the task?
  • A- what actions did you take?
  • R- what was the the result, is there anything that went well, or could have gone better?

‘Imagine you have been asked to … what would you be your approach?’

• This question is designed to understand what your approach would be if you were to face a particular situation in the role.
• We recommend breaking down your approach into logical steps.
