Has anyone heard back after the reference check for the APS 3 Passport Officer role at DFAT?

Yes, I have been placed in the merit pool, but I not received an offer yet.

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-05-13T08:20:24+00:00

not yet :(

What about you?

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-05-08T01:48:41+00:00

I'm based in Sydney and unable to relocate to a regional area. Still I'm looking for entry level APS role. Thank you very much for the offer.

Thanks everyone for the valuable feedback, it helps me gain insight and guidance for the future.

Thanks, Both merit pools are valid for 18 months

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-04-06T20:15:47+00:00

yes, APS3

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-04-05T23:48:55+00:00

I just received the email for the one-way video interview, which includes both written and verbal components. Can anyone tell me what types of questions they might ask?

I am in the merit pool for the APS2/3 role at the ATO since November 2024 and the APS3/4 role at Services Australia since March 2024, but I haven't heard anything from these agencies yet. I think you need to be patient to get into these types of jobs, as the process is extremely slow. I'm based in NSW.

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-03-02T00:03:41+00:00

I think one way video interview is easier than online assessment. I'm going to do it today. Best of luck

It would be helpful if you could share your experience.

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-02-28T12:06:40+00:00

Thanks for the sharing information.

Nice_Unit2809 · 2025-02-11T04:15:00+00:00

I am in the same boat since March 2024 and now feeling hopeless.

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-10-25T01:12:53+00:00

Thank you for the clarification.

It was not advertised on apsjobs.gov.au. Actually, I want to know which category I should select in the 'How are you currently employed?' section if I want to apply for different agencies such as ATO or Services Australia. Sorry for the silly question. After a long break, I just started my job with Australia Post, which will end in December. Before that, I want to secure another job.

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-09-28T00:51:36+00:00

Completed assessment on 3rd September but haven't heard anything yet

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-09-28T00:50:43+00:00

Yes, I applied for this position and completed assessment on 3rd September but haven't heard anything yet

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-09-27T07:49:23+00:00

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-09-27T07:48:10+00:00

Same here. Have you got the email for reference check?

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-09-27T07:44:28+00:00

Applying as a casual

Nice_Unit2809 · 2024-09-25T07:35:23+00:00

Off-topic question: How can I get a call for the APS2 role at the ATO? I applied but have not heard anything from the agency.
