Tips for Completing a City of Eugene <br /> Supplemental Questionnaire <br /> The supplemental questionnaire is scored. Be specific when responding and do not use "See resume." It is <br /> also important to know that each question receives an independent score. Do not combine answers or use <br /> "See above." <br /> Specific points to consider when responding to the questions on a supplemental questionnaire: <br /> ? If the question has multiple parts (A, B, and C), answer each part separately and completely. <br /> ? Repeat your answers if necessary. Remember: each question receives a score. <br /> ? Be sure to list any experience, paid or volunteer, that is relevant. Think carefully about everything <br /> you have done in your past and what might apply. <br /> ? List employment dates (month/year) and hours at each job where requested. Your answer cannot <br /> be scored if it is not clear how long you were employed. Partial credit is given for part-time <br /> employment. Be specific on hours worked. <br /> ? Use "I," not "we," when describing job duties. Do not describe the process or procedure for <br /> completing the duty (unless asked to); explain what you were responsible for. <br /> ? Be sure you answer all of the questions. Some questionnaires have more than one page. Always <br /> check the back side of each page for additional questions. If the information is not on the <br /> questionnaire, you will not be given credit for the experience. The evaluator cannot assume <br /> anything or add information for you. <br /> ? If you do not have any experience and/or training related to a question on the supplemental <br /> questionnaire, please indicate you have read the question and list "N/A" (not applicable) for your <br /> response. Each question is scored but it is possible to continue in the selection process without <br /> having a detailed answer for each question asked. <br /> ? Ensure that your responses are legible and don't use j argon, abbreviations, or acronyms. If the <br /> evaluator has problems reading your answers, he/she may have difficulty scoring your response. <br /> Don't assume the evaluator knows what a job title or duties may mean-describe your <br /> responsibilities clearly. <br /> ? Always sign, date, and staple your application packet. Keep a copy of your completed packet for <br /> your records. We cannot copy or return application materials. Return your packet to Human <br /> Resource and Risk Services, 777 Pearl Street, Room 101, Eugene OR 97401. <br /> ? All applications received by the closing date are reviewed for minimum qualifications. Only the <br /> applicants who meet the minimum qualifications will receive further consideration. <br /> City of Eugene Human Resource and Risk Services <br /> 12/8/2003 <br /> <br /> FD18:SQ Tipsheet.doc <br /> <br />
