Reference Check: Double-check that NDOH 13/2026 is correctly written on your Z83.
The "One PDF" Rule: Government email servers often block emails with multiple separate attachments. Scan your Z83 and CV into one single document before sending.
CSD Knowledge: If you are familiar with the Central Supplier Database (CSD) or e-Tender portal, highlight this in your CV, as it is a core part of modern government procurement.
Tip: In SCM, "compliance" is everything. During an interview, emphasize your honesty, attention to detail, and your understanding that government money must be spent according to very specific rules.
