- Creative writing experience
- Excellent knowledge of word processing packages including MS Word and Google Docs

Application question(s):
- In no more than 400 words, explain how to shop around for, and purchase, car insurance. Please use a conversational tone, use contractions, talk directly to the learner, and use simple language and short sentences that are easy to understand. Use a theme or storytelling to deliver the text. And make sure you insert learning methodology as it’s a learning script. Use Oxford comma, UK English and structure your piece logically and clearly. Finally, try and visualise how this piece will translate to animation (so we should be able to visualise the text as we're reading) and include elements that’ll easily translate into strong visual cues that’ll enhance learning and recall. Above all, make it interesting and engaging!
