Your responses to these questions will be used as a primary source of information and your resume may only be used to validate this information.

• Each response must include concrete, specific examples that speak directly to the experience sought.
• Each example must include WHEN and WHERE the example took place, background of each situation, WHAT you did, HOW you did it, what your role was in the situation, and what was the outcome.
