WRITTEN APPLICATION SAMPLE
I have highlighted my suitability for position V3138 - Customer Contact Officer, by responding to the seven success
categories and capabilities listed in the position profile. My responses will also include experiences I have had that
are relevant to the key responsibilities of this role.
SUCCESS CATEGORY 1: LEADERSHIP
Support shared purpose and direction: In my role as a Senior Customer Service Officer at BMR Hotel Group, it is
essential for me to represent and display the company’s vision, goals and objectives. Being a senior member of the
team, it is also necessary for me to set an example and ensure other team members work towards the same
objectives with their daily tasks. I strive to achieve these goals by providing excellent customer service to clients at
all times and by developing and mentoring other members of the team. These efforts were recently recognised by
my manager who nominated me for the BMR Hotel Group 2010 Employee of the Year Award.
Demonstrates professionalism and probity: Positions undertaken throughout my career have always required
professionalism and probity. I have always been required to adhere to strict codes of conduct, confidentiality,
policies and procedures. For example, my work experience at GBR Council gave me invaluable experience with
adhering to organisational policies, processes and guidelines. During this role, I was asked to be the customer
service representative on a broader team that reviewed the GBR Council’s Customer Service Charter. I provided
input into a number of key strategies and initiatives to ensure customer requests and complaints were handled
professionally and confidentially. Some of these initiatives were implemented across the Council and resulted in
increased customer satisfaction and greater awareness amongst employees.
Engages with risk and shows personal courage: In the various roles I have undertaken, I have often had to
provide advice to customers and other employees. I have always provided honest and straightforward professional
advice grounded by my knowledge of the particular issue and/or by any further research I have conducted. This has
meant that I am able to justify the advice I give. I always aim to learn from the mistakes I make, and seek the
guidance of my managers and fellow employees on ways I can improve my skills and abilities. A specific example is
from my time at The Flight Company, where I made an error of judgement and misinformed a customer. My
supervisor assisted me in fixing my error. This experience showed me the importance of double checking
information before providing it to customers, regardless of time pressures.
SUCCESS CATEGORY 2: STRATEGY AND PLANNING
Thinks strategically: Part of my role as Senior Customer Service Officer at BMR Hotel Group is to guide the
Customer Service Team to fulfil individual and group key performance indicator targets. I developed a plan to
improve customer service satisfaction ratings of hotel clients by designing and implementing a training and induction
program for new employees and refresher training of other members of the customer service team. This initiative
considered internal and broader external factors that were influencing the performance of the customer service team.
The plan was well supported in head office, and was later translated and implemented across other locations within
the BMR Hotel Group.
Shows judgement, intelligence and common sense: I have experience with developing and implementing plans
to improve workplace performance especially within the BMR Hotel Group. I am able to identify issues in the
workplace, the challenges and opportunities that may arise from the issues and develop approaches to deal with
them. For example, I have managed to increase low customer service ratings by thinking objectively and acting on
critical conclusions from available information. I have worked with management to develop an improvement plan
based on mentoring and coaching team members and communicating strategies that can be implemented in difficult
situations where knowledge, judgement and practical solutions are important. The plan was well received amongst
team members and evident with the increase in customer service ratings for the hotel.

SUCCESS CATEGORY 3: INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE
Harnesses information and opportunities: My experience working with a number of organisations has allowed me
to build my knowledge base and use information from various sources to make decisions. I am a current member of
the Customer Service Institute of Australia and Customer Contact Management Association, which means I am
exposed to opportunities for industry-focused training and updated information about new initiatives and
developments in the customer service industry. With the information gained through my experience and
memberships, I initiated a quarterly newsletter to share new information with fellow team members. This initiative
was acknowledged during my last performance review with my manager.
Applies and builds professional expertise: I have developed numerous skills throughout my career and frequently
gain knowledge and skills from utilising the expertise of others within the organisation. I am not afraid to ask
questions of senior members or share information to others in order to achieve positive outcomes for the business. I
recently attended a Customer Service in Action workshop in Melbourne. Upon my return, I facilitated a training
session aimed at transferring my knowledge to others in the workplace.
SUCCESS CATEGORY 4: PEOPLE
Values individuals and diversity: Throughout my career, I have worked with people with disabilities and people
with different cultural backgrounds and religious beliefs. I can communicate effectively and respectfully with people
from diverse backgrounds and am open to exploring different views and perspectives. During my time with the Flight
Company, I was working with a team member who had a visual impairment. I frequently used strategies to make my
fellow team member feel respected and included in the team by identifying myself and others present, by indicating
when I was moving away or leaving a conversation and by using specific language when undertaking tasks or giving
instructions. When I was leaving the company, my fellow team member said thank you for making them feel
comfortable, valued and respected.
Shares learning and supports others: In my current position with BMR Hotel Group I supervise four employees. I
am required to delegate daily tasks, make myself available if needed and provide feedback and instruction. I also
facilitate in-house training and offer opportunities for growth and development through mentoring new and existing
team members. I am confident in providing feedback, advice and recognition to the team and am comfortable to
coach when under performance is evident. I recently praised the efforts of one team member during a team
management meeting. This was well received by the team member and appreciated by higher level management.
Demonstrates self-awareness and a commitment to personal development: I am eager to develop my career
through development and continuous learning. My position with BMR Hotel Group has provided me with the
confidence to acknowledge areas in which I need improvement. It has also allowed me the opportunity to undertake
training to develop existing skills and to improve my performance overall. I am committed to personal development
and embrace any opportunity presented. I recently undertook training in performance management with ABM Pty
Ltd. This training was initiated by me at my own expense to develop my skills in this area. I found the course
invaluable.
Listens, understands and adapts to audience: All positions held within my career have focused on listening and
understanding others and adapting language and communication skills to suit certain situations. I am able to adapt
to a wide range of requests from different people. I like to clear up any misunderstandings that may occur as quickly
and effectively as possible by asking questions and reconfirming key messages. As a Customer Service Officer with
Happy Healthy Families Health Insurance Company, I was regularly exposed to confused and sometimes aggressive
customers. I approached these customers with concern and empathy and always attempted to provide concise and
easy to understand information to help them better comprehend policy decisions and rulings. This skill was noticed
by one of my colleagues who subsequently nominated me for an award. My ability to listen, understand and adapt
to an audience can also be validated by my extensive work history in customer service positions.
SUCCESS CATEGORY 5: CUSTOMER AND MARKET FOCUS
Nurtures internal and external relationships: I am confident in my ability to build positive and productive
relationships with a variety of people. During my time with Townsville News, I made an effort to build rapport and
develop positive relationships with clients, including suppliers and sales representatives. For example, I always
made a conscious attempt to remember names of clients and suppliers, even if I did not see them regularly. The
result of this action was the noticeable increase in repeat business and compliments received by the owner of the
business.

Listens to, understands and recognises the needs of others: Working in a customer focused industry requires
the ability to listen and understand the needs of internal and external clients alike. At BMR Hotel Group, I work
collaboratively with senior and junior employees to identify issues and implement solutions within the customer
service team. I was recently nominated by the team to be the liaison with management, hence I am required to
consult and share information on a regular basis. I keep all stakeholders informed of any issues and the processes
to alleviate potential problems. The team’s always happy with my efforts and are confident with me sharing
information.
Negotiates confidently: During my time with The Flight Company, I was required to negotiate with clients on a
regular basis. This involved having a clear understanding of the situation or issue, the desired outcome and being
able to discuss the issue/s professionally and thoughtfully to assist with managing the customers’ expectations. For
example, a passenger who needed to be in Brisbane due to a family emergency had booked a flight that was
subsequently delayed by a day. The passenger was inconsolable as his mother was dying. I managed to negotiate
with the passenger and another carrier by organising an alternative flight. A few weeks later, the passenger sent a
thank you to my company for my kindness, understanding and assistance.
SUCCESS CATEGORY 6: PROCESS MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENT AND INNOVATION
Responds positively to change: Happy Healthy Families Health Insurance Company exposed me to a variety of
scenarios where I was able to utilise skills necessary to manage change. One example was the upgrade to the
computer software application being used to quote insurance policies and process claims. Not only was it necessary
to learn a new computer system, it was necessary to make changes to the existing work procedure and script when
speaking with customers. I found it was necessary to be positive, flexible and open to sharing information with
others in the team. This allowed me to adapt and undertake my duties with confidence and ease.
Promotes and adopts a positive and balanced approach to work: Being organised and dedicated to my role has
meant that I have always been able to achieve the objectives and duties of my position and projects. Happy Healthy
Families Health Insurance Company required each Call Centre Operator to meet monthly KPI’s. I often felt the
pressure to be able to achieve my targets; however my time management skills and my ability to remain calm,
composed and positive ensured I completed all of my tasks on time to meet my KPI targets. In December 2008, I
received recognition for my achievements by receiving the Employee of the Month Award.
Communicates clearly: My previous customer service experience has provided me with numerous opportunities to
develop my communication skills. Past employers have confirmed my ability to communicate at all levels, clearly
and with confidence. In my role with BMR Hotel Group, I am required to respond to all email enquiries. I ensure to
focus on the key questions or comments and to respond in a clear, concise, and articulate manner. I often receive
reply emails thanking me for providing invaluable information, being understanding and helpful. It’s a pleasure to
know the clients that I have dealt with are happy with the information and service they receive.
SUCCESS CATEGORY 7: SUCCESS AND SUSTAINABILIY
Identifies and uses resources wisely: I am currently completing a Certificate III in Customer Contact with Barrier
Reef Institute of TAFE. During one of my modules, I was required to complete a group assessment with the focus of
conducting a telemarketing campaign. I was selected to be the leader of my group and was required to identify key
capabilities of each team member and assign responsibilities accordingly. Through good planning, cooperation and
open communication I was able to identify the resources and capabilities needed for our team to complete the
assessment within the allocated timeframe. The assessment piece was used as an example to others undertaking
the course and my team gained a competency for the module and top comments from the lecturer.
Takes responsibility for managing work projects to achieve results: At The Flight Company, it was necessary to
follow set policies and procedures to ensure daily tasks were completed according to business protocol. It was also
important to adhere to documentation procedures when issuing or making changes to tickets, itineraries and
manifests. I was required to manage priorities and be accountable for the successful completion of these types of
tasks to ensure transparency of my transactions and to meet my KPI targets. My manager was always pleased with
my KPI results.
Commits to action: As a Senior Customer Service Officer with BMR Hotel Group, I always like to show my initiative
and display my energy and dedication to achieving set tasks and corporate goals. I action all hotel reservations
accurately according to the Reservations Policy and use my initiative to ensure I am familiar with changes to hotel
packages, room types, rates, facilities and services. If I find an error with room rates or accounts, I always rectify the
error by accessing the rating codes within the computerised reservation system. Whilst this is not part of my role, I
take personal responsibility to ensure problems are rectified immediately in order to achieve sales targets and
business objectives.
