Section 2: Behavioral Consistency Questionnaire (BCQ)

The purpose of Section 2 of the SQ is to assess your qualifications and experience for the purposes of ranking and selection.

For those applicants who meet the minimum qualifications of the position, your responses to this portion of the SQ will be anonymized and presented to an expert review panel to be assessed. The quality of your responses will account for 100% of the total weight of your final score, and will directly influence your ability to be reachable for final hiring interviews.

As such, it is suggested that you review the questions before starting, prepare thorough, narrative-style responses in a word processing document, and then paste them into the questionnaire. Responses should be sufficiently detailed to assist in evaluating your qualifications for this position as your score will be based on this information.

No attachments or additional documents such as resumes or cover letters will be considered as part of your response (i.e. writing “see resume” or "see cover letter" is not a sufficient response). Please provide comprehensive answers to the questions below to ensure that your experience is accurately reflected and appropriately considered.
