You’ve just watched the full walkthrough of a 250-word statement for Working Together at Executive Officer (EO) grade. Here are the key insights to help you shape your own example.
Why this behaviour matters
At EO level, Working Together is about building positive relationships, supporting colleagues, and contributing to a cooperative environment. Recruiters want to see that you can collaborate effectively, respect different perspectives, and share knowledge to help your team deliver strong outcomes.
How to shape your own statement
Think of a time when you worked closely with others to achieve a goal. Use the B-STAR method to structure your response:
🤝 Belief – state your commitment to teamwork and collaboration.
🎯 Situation and Task – describe when teamwork was essential to success.
🛠️ Activity – explain how you supported colleagues, shared information, or encouraged cooperation.
📈 Result – show the outcome, such as improved delivery, stronger relationships, or positive feedback.
Practical tip
Demonstrate how you listened and adapted to support the team. Recruiters value candidates who show respect, build trust, and work constructively with others.
Next step
Use the example from the video above as a guide. Apply the same structure to your own experiences to evidence how you work effectively with colleagues at EO grade.
