Stream recruitment enables the Department to carefully identify the capabilities specific to each stream and design a recruitment process to suit. In turn, candidates have the opportunity to target their application to a specific type of role and demonstrate their capability across a range of assessment activities.
The Department will use the merit pools created through these recruitment processes to fill vacancies as they arise. The merit pools will have a lifespan of 12 months from the date of advertising.
At Finance, we have identified a number of professional streams that help guide our recruitment campaigns:
- Accounting and Financial Management
- Policy
- Enabling Services
Recruitment for specialist and technical roles outside of these streams is also carried out as needed.
