Step 3
Pre-employment checks
After your interview process, we’ll complete a few standard pre-employment checks. This includes contacting your nominated referees, so it’s important to provide relevant work references for care roles where possible.
As an aged care and family and community services provider, we’re required to complete a Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check (NCCHC). If you’re on a VISA, we’ll also do a VEVO check. If you are applying for a care provider role, you may also need an assessment to ensure you can meet the physical requirements of the role. Some roles may also require a NDIS worker screening check.
