Selection criteria that actually score
Government panels score every criterion separately, and strong applicants get screened out every week for describing duties instead of proving capability. I write your responses by hand, from your real examples, in the language panels are trained to look for.
- Written by hand in Brisbane — no AI filler
- STAR structure, to your exact word limits
- 20-minute evidence call included
- 3-5 business day turnaround
Why good applicants miss out on public sector roles
It's almost never about capability. It's about evidence, structure and framework language.
Responses describe the job's duties rather than what you personally did.
Claims like "excellent communicator" score nothing without evidence behind them.
Word limits are applied strictly, so the strongest example gets cut for filler.
The capability framework language the panel scores against is missing entirely.
One thin criterion drags the whole application down, no matter how good the rest is.
The resume and the criteria tell two different stories about the same person.
Hand-written STAR responses, built on your own evidence
Every response is built on Situation, Task, Action, Result — with most of the words spent on your actions and a concrete result. Numbers where you have them: time saved, incidents reduced, people trained, budget managed, compliance achieved. Where numbers don't exist, we use scope and complexity.
I write to the framework the ad references — APS Work Level Standards, Queensland and other state capability profiles, council frameworks, defence and defence industry — and keep the whole application consistent with your resume.
Suits APS and state government roles, Queensland Health and education positions, local council jobs, internal promotions, and senior private-sector applications that ask for written responses. See the full packages if you want your resume rewritten too.

Simple, and it starts today
Book and brief me
Pay securely, then paste the criteria and role description into a short brief form.
Evidence call
A 20-minute call where we pull out the real examples from your career — the part most people can't do alone.
I draft your responses
Each criterion written to the stated word limit, in framework language, aligned to your resume.
Review and submit
You read them, we revise once, and you submit with time to spare before the closing date.
This is the right fit if…
- You're applying for an APS or state government role with written criteria.
- You're going for an internal promotion and need a capability-based response.
- You've been rejected at the screening stage before and don't know why.
- You have the experience but freeze when asked to write about it.
- The closing date is close and you can't afford to guess.
- You want your criteria and resume to tell one consistent story.
What clients say
Honestly I never gave my resume much thought — I'm a sparky, I figured the work speaks for itself. But Allinta pulled out all the projects I'd run and the tickets I hold, made it look proper professional. Three weeks later I had a FIFO gig paying $40K more than my old one. Wish I'd done it sooner.
Allinta started fresh and actually made it show what I bring to a site — safety record, crews managed, the big builds.
Started hearing back almost immediately. Night and day difference.
