JasonM Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 I have seen a job on seek which matches my skills perfectly. Only issue is the have said Australian citizen only. They claim that they are an equal opportunities employer and in their statement claim nationality as some thing they do not discriminate against. I got a reply saying other people's skills matched the position better than mine. Which it total crap. Ho hum. Doesn't matter as I have loads of others intreasted in me. Just the principal of it really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verystormy Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Employers are allowed to do this. In fact pretty much all federal government jobs require citizenship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vijay Kumar P Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Govt jobs, defense jobs and other jobs which are related to Aussie govt require citizenship. In rare cases they hire PR holders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
