Recruitment Process
Step 1: Apply online
The online application should take you about 20 minutes to complete. There are a series of questions to answer. You will also need to provide a current resume and academic transcript.
Step 2: Online testing
If your application is successful you will be asked to complete an online test. This test is designed to assess your cognitive and analytical ability.
Step 3: Assessment Centres
Based on your results from the online test, you may be invited to participate in assessment centres. These are conducted in all major capital cities and run for approximately half a day.
Assessments include:
- Group exercise

Step 4: Second stage of Assessment Centres
Based on your results from the Assessment Centre, you may be invited to participate in a second stage of assessments. These Assessment Centres are conducted in Canberra. If you are located in another state, Finance will arrange for your flights to Canberra for the day.

Assessments include:
- Interview
