Successful applicants will need to demonstrate their understanding of our key skills and behaviours through a competitive, multi-stage application process. Impact runs one national recruitment process each year and supports councils to run local and internal recruitment campaigns.&nbsp;
You must also:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>- Have lived in the Liverpool City Region (comprising Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens, and Wirral) for at least 3 years by September 2026; or&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>​​​​- Have completed your secondary education or higher education (e.g., secondary school, college, or university) within the city region&nbsp; ​​​​​​​&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Please read before applying&nbsp;
As part of the application process, you are required to complete a Situational Judgment Test which is the only assessment you will need to complete at this stage.&nbsp;
The Situational Judgement Test (SJT)  presents you with 24 realistic scenarios that someone might experience in a role on the programme, along with multiple ways of responding. The SJT will appear after you have completed your application question, and you will need to complete the SJT before you can submit your application.&nbsp;
Instructions for the test:&nbsp;
This test is untimed, and it should be completed in one sitting. You will be taken to the assessment page after answering your application questions.&nbsp;
You will need to organise each scenario into the order of response, depending on what you are  most  appropriate or  least appropriate to do for each of the 24 questions. There are detailed instructions within the form.&nbsp;
If you have any questions or require support completing your application or situational judgement test, please do not hesitate to contact&nbsp;<a href="mailto:impact.support@local.gov.uk" target="_blank">impact.support@local.gov.uk</a>&nbsp;before starting your application or test.&nbsp;
