Candidates

Will I have to pay CBC Staff Selection Recruitment Services when you find me a job?
No, our recruitment fees are paid by the employer.

Can I post/fax you a copy of my CV/ Résumé?
No, we ask that you submit your CV/Resume via email, either to a consultant or to apply@cbcstaff.com.au so that we can quickly and accurately match your skills and experience to any suitable positions.

Will I definitely get a response to my application?
Yes. We believe it is important to reply to all our applicants.

I’m happy just looking for jobs on your website, why do I need to register?
By registering with CBC Staff Selection you broaden your job search. Not all of our jobs are advertised on our website, so if you register with us, we can let you know what other jobs we have available and about great opportunities that suit you as they come in (we get new jobs every day).

Does CBC Staff Selection mind if I use other recruitment agencies?
We’d prefer you were exclusively registered with us but we understand that when you are looking for a job you may want to cover as many avenues as possible. In this instance all we ask is that you let us know which agencies you are registered with and which jobs they have spoken to you about, so that we don’t cover the same ground.

What should I bring to my interview with CBC Staff Selection Recruitment Services?
Please bring a copy of your birth certificate or passport as we need to verify your rights to work within Australia.

How should I dress for my CBC Staff Selection Recruitment Services interview?
Dress appropriately for your interview. You should wear smart business attire and remember to dress for success and to impress. Your presentation will be conveyed to the employers we’re working with.

Will you tell me before sending my resume to an employer?
We will always discuss a position and employer with you and only put you forward for a role with your permission.

Will my references be checked?
Yes. It is important to provide a minimum two business references (preferably from your most recent employers). They will be contacted at the very end of the process when our client has advised they wish to make an offer of employment to you. In some circumstances, reference checks may be conducted earlier in the process and we will advise you if this is the case. We will only contact your current employer with your authorization.

What are the benefits of using an Agency to assist me in finding a job?
It is very common for employers to contact agencies before advertising and as such agencies are notified of positions well ahead of them being advertised. This means that using an agency will often result in securing a position that may never be advertised.
