Can anyone help me out with this question for a job application?

What would be an example of this?

Look up specifically what the public service values are and then use an example that shows you demonstrsted them.

What are public service values though?

honesty, impartiality and integrity?

Yes, they will lump in personal development here also.

So would using a course I undertook to benefit my role be a suitable example?

I've never worked in the public sector.

I'd use this as my starting point....

I'd say that you should navigate your way round this site, it won't be a 5 minute job, but there are pointers aplenty if you delve into it.

This covers what you need. Most Civil and Public service bodies use a variation of it.

If you're going for one of the traditional Civil Service grade positions, or something that is the equivalent of one of those grades, look up the competency sheet for it. It should have Drive and Commitment on there as a competency, and the 'sub-competencies' along with it.

For example, check out what I mean by the AP one - https://www.publicjobs.ie/restapi/documents/Assistant_Principal_Officer_Level.pdf

On the second last page, at the end, it breaks it down.
