New South Wales is home to one of the largest and most complex state public sectors in the country, offering diverse and rewarding opportunities for professionals across a wide range of disciplines. Whether you are applying for frontline service roles, administration and customer service positions, health and clinical appointments, policy and advisory roles, regulatory and compliance positions, emergency services careers, ICT and digital transformation roles or senior executive appointments, high quality, targeted documentation is essential for success. NSW Government recruitment is competitive, structured and capability driven, requiring applicants to demonstrate value clearly, concisely and in alignment with departmental expectations.

Government Resumes maintains a deep understanding of the NSW Public Sector Capability Framework, selection criteria requirements, behavioural indicators and assessment methodology used by NSW Government hiring panels. Our team stays informed about government priorities, policy directions, legislative changes, organisational reforms and evolving expectations across agencies. This ensures the documents we prepare are precisely aligned with the competency areas most relevant to your role, including Think and Solve Problems, Display Resilience, Deliver Results, Communicate Effectively, Work Collaboratively, Influence and Negotiate, Manage Self, Demonstrate Accountability and other capability domains.

We prepare a comprehensive suite of documentation tailored specifically for NSW Government applications including customised résumés, persuasive cover letters, detailed selection criteria responses, capability statements, pitch documents, expressions of interest, leadership résumés, technical CVs and fully optimised LinkedIn profiles. Each document is written from the ground up. We never use templates or generic phrasing. Instead, we capture your professional background, achievements, strengths and aspirations and transform them into high impact, strategically structured documents that strengthen your competitiveness.

NSW Government applications often require STAR based responses demonstrating evidence of your capabilities across areas such as stakeholder engagement, teamwork, regulatory knowledge, problem solving, service delivery, policy implementation, customer focus, conflict resolution, project coordination, adaptability, governance, risk awareness, leadership and strategic decision making.
