We recognise that artificial intelligence (AI) such as ‘ChatGPT’ etc can be useful for applicants e.g. to shorten an initial draft, so we do not attempt to have an absolute ban on AI in applications.

We want to hear your authentic voice arising out of your experience, and we will be looking for answers that use examples and experiences that are specific to you.
