Section 3: The Application Form

When you download or request a copy of the position description and selection criteria for an advertised position, you will also receive a document called Staff Vacancies and Applicant Information.

• the position title
• your full contact details
• whether or not you are currently employed at the University
• your authorisation for the selection panel to conduct reference enquiries
• how you heard about the vacant position. 

The background information briefly outlines:

• what you need to include in your written application
• how to lodge your application, electronically, by mail or in person
• what to do if you have specific enquiries about the position
• what may happen if you are asked to attend an interview.
