Civil service application form

Pickle29

Hi
I am completing an application form in line for a civil service job. It only seems to ask for current employment is that right? There is no where to put previous jobs. I didn't want to submit if I have done something wrong! Many ideas?

Thanks in advance!

You should be able to put in past jobs once you have put the current in.

That's what I thought, but there is no heading. On the left side, under progress tracker it says eligibility, personal inf ( name/ address), current employment, then competence questions, FE etc
Should there be a specific section?

It should be in the same section and directly underneath where you put in your most recent.

Thanks, there is definitely no section for previous employment and I have been in every section! Bizarre!
Or first test failed hahaha !

It won't be in any other section it goes in the same one as your current employment

Hi
I think there must be different sections to complete for different jobs. I have just tried to apply for a different position and it came up, along with additional information and qualifications which I didn't get in my first application! ( I got competencies and FE/HE. Sections to complete not qualifications!) bizarre!

The forms vary according to the position. Unless you're going for a senior position they will not use your employment history as part of the sift, so you're not losing anything by not putting it down.

Good luck!
