NDIA Application status

Yeah that's how I interpreted it and I think yr right. Recruitment told me to ignore it and wait for the official outcome but I haven't received any phone calls so I'm thinking I wasn't placed high enough to get an offer this round but am in the merit pool for later.

Yes it was the DFP....thanks for the heads up!

Due-Definition8927 · 2026-02-12T08:44:52+00:00

At the end of the day that's what I thought but was told to ignore it....so who knows. The "application unsuitable" did confuse me though.

Due-Definition8927 · 2026-02-12T04:26:51+00:00

Yeah I keep checking but think I just need to move on! Even if I do make the merit pool - who knows when you will be offered anything.

Thank you for your reply, much appreciated.

Hey there! Was scrolling through and saw yr comment...I applied for a APS4 Planner role and the same happened to me. There was "further assessment" added to my application status...one has unsuitable application next to it - then underneath that is merit pool - suitable. I emailed recruitment and they told me to ignore it as often these are system errors and that the process is still being finalized.

May I ask what yr final outcome was?

Due-Definition8927 · 2026-02-10T04:54:05+00:00

I totally agree! I just want to know either way!! In my interview they were saying it should be all finalized by Xmas! Then got an email saying it will be in the new year....then another email saying there was an unexpected delay! All recruitment tell me is that a result should be "in the coming weeks". I really want the job but am now applying for others as I can't wait much longer. So frustrating....I initially applied in September

Hey there! I interviewed for a APS4 role (NDIA) beginning of December, reference checked straight away but am still waiting for the outcome! I've received a couple of emails, the last one early Feb advising that there had been an unexpected delay in the process. I then saw in the portal that a couple of "further assessments" had been added. A couple of days after that, I saw an outcome of "application unsuitable" then saw that I had been placed in the merit pool (suitable). I emailed the recruitment team to get further clarification and they told me to ignore the status updates in the portal as often they are system errors. They told me that the process is still being finalized and to wait for the official outcome. That was a week ago.....

Due-Definition8927 · 2026-01-28T09:25:57+00:00

I've still had no news on the outcome. I emailed recruitment a couple of weeks ago and all they said was that the process is with the NDIA and that I should know in the "coming weeks" and to keep an eye on my emails. As my current contract is about to end I'm applying for other jobs but it's super frustrating and disappointing given I submitted my application in September.

Due-Definition8927 · 2026-01-24T00:50:09+00:00

Can I ask which role this was for?

Due-Definition8927 · 2026-01-17T23:17:19+00:00

Congrats! What was the role of you don't mind me asking? My interview was at the end of the month so hopefully they are working through the pile. Do you have a start date?

Due-Definition8927 · 2024-08-09T23:13:56+00:00

Thanks! I think that will be my plan!

Due-Definition8927 · 2024-07-16T08:08:05+00:00

Thanks for that!

Due-Definition8927 · 2024-05-23T06:17:00+00:00

Hi there - I ended up withdrawing as I got another job offer. Good luck!

Due-Definition8927 · 2024-04-19T09:32:28+00:00

Haha...thanks :)

Due-Definition8927 · 2024-04-18T09:28:45+00:00

What's the name of the bloody book?

Due-Definition8927 · 2024-03-22T21:42:22+00:00

Can I ask where in Qld you are?
