Selection Criteria Responses
The STAR method- or situation/task- action and result- is a dependable and proper technique for
helping form a good answer to a behavioral inquiry similar to the imminent position of a
Community Health Professional. The method is an all-inclusive technique that walks a candidate
throughout the whole progression of responding to questions posed by a keen interviewer from
the beginning to the end.
A year ago, when I was working in the improvement division of the local clinic, I ended up in a
circumstance where action should have been made. Unfortunately, I was the main individual
accessible to do it. While I am extremely talented at following headings/instructions and don't
wind up in the situation of the essential initiator all the time. I got into a situation that included
only me seeing the contemptibility and burglary of another representative. I don’t like to get
associated with the dramatizations of my colleagues or take things to our HR office. What was
occurring was clear, and there was no one else who would step up. However, in this
circumstance, I wound up starting a case with HR uncovering the robbery circumstance which
had been continuing for quite a while and comprehending the riddle of the vanishing items.
Thinking back on it, going to HR was one of the hardest choices I have made in my professional
life since I don't, for the most part, jump at the chance to get tangled with other individuals'
business, yet it was the correct activity. Therefore, I believe I am reliable, proactive in my career,
since I will not let a minor thing derail it.
The result of the whole ordeal is that the rogue employee was dismissed and I decided to move
on to another job. In addition to being reliable and proactive, I am confident in working with
aged care clients and people with chronic health issues. Also, I have the ability to work
collaboratively to achieve goals within a diverse team environment as well as following and
implement a designated plan to achieve a desired outcome.
Moreover, in my last part as a Communal Well-being Hand dealing with a heap of
customers/patients, yet have new ones coming in constantly. Some of it is standard work,
following up to correspondence, and a portion of my work is matters emerging from
circumstances. I can't generally assign my errands. A little while back, I had five bits of on-going
caseload work and two bits of consultancy work. On one specific day, some earnest status
reports were required before the finish of the day. The on-going casework has an administration

HCA Healthcare Australia, HCA-APP2018
required pivot of 10 days, in any case, I set my own for 5 days to ensure that no standard work
remains around my work area for long. Along these lines, I never have an accumulation. The
consultancy work is a high need, with strict deadlines. These are dependable to be finished 2
weeks before the deadline, thus I finish these in front of this date by designating time in my
journal to take a shot at these need ventures. When I get critical work in, for example, the status
report, it should be promptly taken care of. I don't generally set needs for this, and dependable
have other work to do in the meantime. Some of the time, I may have a few of these in the
meantime and need to ask administration which is generally essential. On this specific day, the
status report was given my prompt consideration from the minute I got the email to finish it. I
expected to reschedule the majority of my agreement and standard work. Because of the way that
I give myself more tightly deadlines for my standard work, I am constantly capable to keep to a
deadline, notwithstanding when I get dire errands, for example, the status report. On that specific
day, the report was sent before the deadline, and I was as yet ready to finish the majority of my
normal work on time.
Preparing for the huge meeting/interview includes a wide range of skills than just setting up a
resume or filling in the work history (Aurélie, Bernard & Rodhain, 2014). The meeting is the
open door for a potential boss to put forth complex top to bottom inquiries that uncover a
candidate's character and represent practices that are probably going to convey into the next
activity. These behavioral inquiries, for example, 'Give me a case of a period when you stepped
up ' can be precarious to answer yet are fundamental to getting effectively contracted.
Klarita & Ferry (2015) argue that at the point when questioners pose behavioral meeting
inquiries like this, they are attempting to get at the actual character as it identifies with
inspiration. By making this inquiry they are additionally making different inquiries by
implication, for example, 'Would you say you are self-inspired or do different components spur
you? Are you a solitary rogue individual or do others rouse you to put forth a valiant effort?'
When a candidate talks about his/her case of a period when he/she stepped up, the candidate will
be outlining to the questioner how he/she were spurred, what sort of work the candidate may be
most appropriate to, and numerous other persuasive variables. Since questions that identify with
conduct are profoundly individual and usually extreme to discuss, they can really be the most
difficult piece of a meeting. Fortunately, there are a few ways-including the STAR strategy that

HCA Healthcare Australia, HCA-APP2018
can prepare a candidate and enable him/her to deal with the pressure shaped a comprehensive
response to a top to bottom inquiry and give the questioners what they are searching for:
knowledge into the candidate’s professional identity (Madia, 2011).
