This is because a supporting statement is not just a generic set of words to accompany your CV. It is a sifting mechanism, where an automated system or the person responsible for the first stage sift will search for the keywords matching an often highly detailed person specification.
The more able you are to match the criteria in this statement, the more likely you are to get through to an interview.
This means a mental trawl back through your experience to find evidence, examples and achievements and compile them into a carefully devised, clear and focused statement.
Your supporting statement will be;
- Expertly matched to the Person Specification criteria
- Written succinctly but in engaging language
- Contain all the evidence and examples possible to present a powerful case
