The Departmental On-line Recruitment System (DORS) is an Internet based recruitment software package used by the department to advertise vacancies and to facilitate the submission of job applications and the assessment of applicants for advertised vacancies.
How it works
The system allows applicants to:
- search for vacancies
- access and read position descriptions/selection criteria
- view contact officer and closing date details
- apply for vacancies on-line
- access previous applications submitted through DORS.
The system allows managers to:
- advertise vacancies
- receive applications online and shortlist.
Who has access to DORS
Any person looking for a job in the department may access the DORS.
Who sees my application?
The following people will be able to view your application:
- You
- The Selection Panel responsible for assessing your application
- The Delegate (the departmental manager who has the authority to approve selection decisions)
- Personnel and Recruitment Services (who manage and administer recruitment for the department).
What happens when I submit an application through DORS?
When you submit an application through DORS:
- You will receive a response via email, advising that your application has been received.
- You will receive an email advising if you have been selected for further assessment.
- If you have been successful, you will receive written advice from the department about your promotion, engagement or movement, and the forms and other information required prior to your start date.
- If you are unsuccessful, you will receive notification and an offer to receive feedback from the Selection Advisory Committee.
How to apply
If you are registering with DORS for the first time:
- you need to click on 'Start new Application' and then follow the prompts
- the system will ask you to enter your full name, email address and desired password. The system will then assign you a logon id, which you should retain along with your password.
Your logon id and password allows you to access your application at any time throughout the process, make changes to personal details once you have submitted an application, access previous applications you have submitted, and apply for new jobs listed with DORS.
If you have already registered with DORS and have a logon id and password you must click on the "Access existing Application" if you want to apply for a new job.
If you have forgotten your logon id and password the system will ask you to enter your email address and will then email your logon id and password to you. You can then access DORS and continue with your application.
