What is a talent pool?
Being placed in a talent pool is a fantastic opportunity to be considered for many roles with DRNSW by submitting only one application. Talent pools are valid for 18 months and while being placed in a talent pool does not guarantee that you will be offered employment, it does mean you are at the front of the queue for available opportunities. 

What is the process? 
The process starts with you submitting your application. Once your application has been received, we will call you to discuss your application and any adjustments we can make to ensure that you can participate in the recruitment process.

You might be asked to attend an interview (either via video, over the phone or face to face), or complete a written or other assessment task. Reference checks will also be undertaken if you are successful in being placed into a role. 

Why work for us? 
Putting it simply, at DRNSW we are here to work hard for the people of regional NSW, and it is the people and communities of regional NSW that are at the heart of everything we do.
