Over the last 10 years, coach, facilitator and coach supervisor Brendon Le Lievre has worked with hundreds of people navigating APS recruitment. Those conversations eventually became his book, The APS Recruitment Game.

In this episode, Brendon answers some of the questions he has been asked most often since publishing the book and shares the patterns he has observed from years of coaching, interview preparation and recruitment support.

Topics include:

• Why he wrote The APS Recruitment Game
• Why capable people often struggle with recruitment
• Common mistakes in applications and interviews
• What panels are really looking for
• How to use the STAR framework more effectively
• Why confidence and self-awareness matter
• The balance between "I" and "we" when describing your work
• The five career moves beyond promotion
• The one message Brendon hopes readers take away from the book
