What kinds of jobs require a recent police check?

A recent police check is often required when applying for employment (paid and unpaid) and appointment to positions of trust as it helps organisations make informed decisions about the suitability of applicants. It is relevant to a broad range of industries, including:

Community Services and Development
Education and Training
Healthcare and Medical
Legal
Volunteer and not-for-profit organisations

of applicants to relevant jobs on SEEK are now verifying with Certsy

How does it work?

1 Verify

Provide evidence of your credentials, which Certsy then checks with the relevant authority or uses other suitable verification methods.

2

Once your verified result is available, you can share it on SEEK to enhance your job applications.

3 Stand out

If shared, employers using SEEK to manage applications will be able to see your verified credential for relevant past and future applications as a live feed.

Certsy has a unique integration with Australia’s leading job site SEEK to help you stand out when applying for jobs. And thanks to SEEK, you can verify and share your credentials at no cost to you. Learn more about verifying and sharing your credentials with SEEK.

What you’ll need to verify successfully

Before you get started, make sure you have an Australian police check certificate that was issued in the past 12 months.

Please note that we do not accept certificates issued by the Australian Federal Police.

If you have obtained a Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check issued by Certsy in the past few months, we will automatically award you with a Recent Police Check credential that you can choose to share with employers.
