For D1, learners must further their evidence by evaluating their performance in the team. They can make justified suggestions on overall team performance such as improvements to communication, performance monitoring, or the limitations of the team leader role to diffuse conflict within the team. When explaining how individuals and the team leader contributed to the team’s effectiveness, learners should give examples based on their chosen teams rather than just general statements about team lea...

For P5, learners should adopt the role of either an interviewee or an interviewer in a mock selection interview. Learners should demonstrate through role play that they have prepared for the interview. They should have the necessary documentation available and be able to conduct the proceedings.

Evidence is likely to come from a copy of t...

For P4, learners will plan all aspects of their interview(s) for P5

For M1, learners must be able to identify the documents used in the three stages of the selection process. They should know the purpose of the key documents. They should be able to explain the purpose of the information that the completed documents will provide for the interviewers. They should be able to draw comparisons between the purposes of appropriate documents.

For P3, learners will prepare the documentation for an identified vacancy. This will encompass a job advert, job description and person specification. The completion of these three documents to an appropriate standard will provide the evidence for this criterion.

For P2, learners will explain the key legal and ethical requirements of selection interviews. This could be done by providing a concise, but detailed guide for interviewers.

For P1, learners will need to understand the reasons why vacancies occur, and the factors which influence organisations to recruit. Vacancies may be filled internally or externally. External sources, if used will have time and cost implications. The vacancy may be advertised internally or externally, and for external advertising, the choice of media is important. The organisations selected, could link to P3, and the evidence for P1 could be in the form of an introductory planning sheet.
