Is it inappropriate to just ask them what they are looking for - eg an executive summary, detail, one example, or maybe check with a Headhunter.

Seriously, Jonathan, I agree with you that you should keep the responses as short and concise as possible while still adequately answering the questions. ________________________________ From:Jonathan Link [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 09, 2009 11:04 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: O/T Supplemental information questionnaire This question is really how you manage staff. If you get technical you'll probably answer the question "incorrectly." On Thu, Apr 9, 2009 at 12:00 PM, Jeff Williams <[email protected]> wrote: I have a quick question. I am applying for a government job. It is for a county here in California . Part of the application process is to fill out a supplemental information questionnaire. There are four questions. One of the question is as follows: "Describe your experience in supporting, designing, implementing, troubleshooting and managing an enterprise network environment through subordinate staff (e.g., network engineers, administrators) in support of all network infrastructure components, upgrades, disaster recovery processes, and overall WAN/LAN performance to secure business continuity." With 15 years of experience, I could write a book. But I doubt that person read a book. So, my question, how long should this response be? I say 1/2 a page, total of two pages for the four questions. It will be a very, very high level response. Thoughts? Thanks Jeff ________________________________ Windows Live™: Keep your life in sync.
