If you use AI or Chatbots to help you with your application, keep these points in mind: - AI can support research, structuring and refining your writing, but your application must reflect your real skills and experience . - Spell-checking and condensing word counts are great ways to use AI effectively. - Do not copy and paste AI generated answers. These will not help you stand out; remember, we want to hear about your skills and experience. - Providing false and insincere examples goes against our core values of honesty and integrity and may lead to your application being withdrawn or termination of your employment.
