For more than three decades, Government Resumes has proudly supported job seekers pursuing Western Australian Government jobs and public sector careers across Perth and regional Western Australia. With an exceptional 98.5 per cent success rate in securing interviews, our highly experienced team of résumé writers and career coaches has assisted thousands of applicants in gaining employment across key WA Government departments, agencies, commissions, public entities and government funded organisations.
The Western Australian Government is one of the state’s largest and most diverse employers, offering a broad spectrum of meaningful roles across policy, community services, health, education, justice, environment, mining regulation, infrastructure, emergency services, procurement, project delivery, regulatory compliance, transport, digital transformation and senior leadership. Because recruitment across the WA public sector is highly competitive and based on demonstrated merit, your résumé, cover letter and selection criteria responses must clearly communicate your capability, integrity, public sector alignment and individual suitability for the role.
Our team understands WA Government recruitment processes in detail, including capability frameworks, behavioural expectations, agency-specific role requirements and the importance of STAR based evidence. We stay actively informed of government priorities, workforce trends, departmental restructures, community needs, policy reforms, regulatory changes and talent requirements across the WA public sector. This ensures the documentation we prepare is consistently aligned with current expectations and written to the highest professional standard.
Government Resumes prepares a comprehensive suite of tailored documents for Western Australian Government applications including custom résumés, cover letters, pitch documents, capability statements, full-length selection criteria responses, executive résumés, technical CVs and professional LinkedIn profiles. Every document is individually written, precisely worded and strategically structured to highlight your strengths, background, experience and achievements.
A significant portion of WA Government applications require detailed responses to selection criteria with clear STAR formatted examples demonstrating your capabilities in areas such as stakeholder engagement, communication, teamwork, leadership, regulatory understanding, community outcomes, problem solving, policy implementation, decision making, initiative, project coordination, continuous improvement, planning and governance. Our writers specialise in identifying accurate, relevant and compelling STAR examples and transforming them into polished, high impact written responses that align with the expectations of WA Government panels.
