I would suggest that candidates do their research prior to applying and interviewing for a role. Learn about the values (both the APS Values and the agency values), the role or work type you're interested in. Come prepared with some quality questions to ask of your interviewer at the end of the interview (e.g. Could you tell my why you enjoy working at the ATO?; How long have you been with the ATO and what has your career journey looked like during this time?; etc.). Be honest, authentic and genuine with your answers! Don't try to give an answer you think the interviewer wants to hear, speak from your experience instead.

Be patient. The recruitment process takes time. When doing the online assessment, don't stress about how long it takes you to answer each question. Take your time, think the questions through. To prepare, think about times in your career or life where you have delivered an outcome that benefited your client/customer. Upsell yourself!
