Interview location: Birkenhead, Wirral
Citizens Advice Wirral is part of the Disability Confident scheme. We're taking positive action by providing interviews to candidates who have a registered disability - provided they meet the minimum skills for the role. We'll ask you whether you are eligible when you apply, so if you'd like to be considered for this scheme, all you need to do is let us know in your application.
At Citizens Advice Wirral we seek to embrace emerging technologies and understand that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly part of everyday life. When we are recruiting, we use situational questions to assess a person's suitability for the role and so it's really important that we hear from the person themselves. With this in mind we screen responses to detect the presence of AI and where high levels of AI are detected we may not progress applications any further. We therefore strongly encourage applicants to avoid the use of AI, or to use minimal AI input to avoid a detrimental effect on the shortlisting process.
