The best advice we can give to you as an applicant is to do your research and don’t leave your application until the last minute!
- Read all the job information available on our Portal to get a good idea of the role and what it involves.
- Review the selection criteria and any other instructions on how to apply.
- Contact the person listed in the advertisement If you have any questions about the position or the application process.
- Prepare your written application. We recommend you do this in a separate Word (or similar) document so you can copy and paste your answers into the online form when you're ready to submit your application. This will also help you avoid losing your work in case your online session times out, as any changes will not be saved if this happens.
Clearly write out each of the essential requirements and explain how you meet that requirement, using real-world examples.
One or two paragraphs per criteria is usually fine, but feel free to write more or less as you need.
Please note: there is a 4,000 character limit for each answer. - Have your current resume and any supporting documents ready to go. These will need to be attached to the online form.
