Our application process involves the following:
  • Submission of your CV and Cover letter as indicated in the job description.
  • Going through the stages of the interview process after being shortlisted.
We have a three-stage interview process which will incorporate competency based questions, exercises relevant to the role (i.e., presentation, written exercise, case study) and an oral interview.
Unfortunately due to the number of applications we receive for our roles, and to ensure fairness, we are unable to offer you the chance of speaking with the hiring team before you apply. If you have specific questions on the role, we encourage you to mention these in your supporting statement when applying. Should you be shortlisted for interview, you will have a chance to discuss your questions with the interview panel.
Submission of this information is voluntary and will only be used for statistical monitoring purposes. Disclosure of this information will help us to monitor our commitment towards creating equal opportunities. Any answers that you give in this section are separated from your application by our recruitment system and cannot be seen by members of the hiring panel.
We recognise the importance of staff diversity in the widest sense and believe that it will help us achieve our aims. We care about recruiting people who think in different ways and come from diverse backgrounds.
You can apply online by using the “Apply Online” button provided for each job posting. BOVAS will confirm by email that we have received your application and give you an estimated timeline for finalising the application process.
Your application should be targeted at a specific open position at BOVAS and we expect you to meet the requirements of the position. We would like your CV and cover letter to explain the following:
  • Your reason for applying for the open position.
  • How your skills, knowledge and experience are relevant to the position you are applying for and how you can contribute to the success of BOVAS.
  • A detailed overview of your career and your professional competences: your results and achievements, activities you have carried out and your areas of responsibility.
