Using the Tool
Situation, Task, Action, Result. It is the standard format for behavioural interviews.
The Action section is the most important (it should be 60-70% of your answer) as it demonstrates your specific contribution.
Our engine analyzes your text against your selected Competency Framework (e.g., NICS).
It scans for specific behavioral indicators and keywords associated with the grade level you selected. A "High Score" means you have evidenced the specific behaviors required for that framework.
