Interview question about experience of complex ER cases

Emiah Brown

Hi all,

I have noticed that alot of employers are looking for experience in complex ER cases when applying for HR Officer/ HR Advisor roles. Please can you advise what sort of things are they looking for and how do you go about answering interview questions for it. e.g please can you talk me through a ER case you recently been involved in?

not sure the best way to answer this or what they are looking for. I work in a highly secure environment and have signed the official secrets act. How much detail do they expect from a candidate? What's the best way to answer a question like this?

Other than experience at work, what other ways can you recommend gaining ER case experience?

Thanks for your help.

  • Surely the OSA bit of most jobs is specific??. I would have thought therefore that certain things are covered Like names, or dates or materials. Not necessarily everyday mundane events? Surely you can tell someone you had a coffee at tea time? Or went somewhere? Or had a discussion about something not covered?

    (I signed the OSA and everything you did wasn't covered/relevant - otherwise It would have wiped several years off my life!)

    I'm sure you could find a case you were involved in and simply not use names or anything else that could make it identifiable??

    Just make one up. They won't know and won't care. What they want to know is what they asked. (How it was handled by you!).

    And of course you can always say that you are unable to answer question X because you have signed the OSA.
