Essential requirements and pre-employment checks
Some jobs will have essential requirements and/or pre-employment checks.
Essential requirements are the minimum elements which applicants must hold in order to perform a job – for example, a particular registration, license, certificate or qualification.
Sometimes skills, experience, knowledge or qualifications may be listed as desirable requirements if the panel would like applicants to have these but do not consider them to be essential in order to be able to do the job.
Pre-employment checks, such as police checks, may be required for certain roles due to the nature of the duties and responsibilities.
The job advertisement will clearly indicate if there any specific requirements for the position.
