Why Work with a Recruiter to Find a Permanent Role?

Can I job search confidentially with Whizdom?
Yes. There are many reasons people don't publicly share their jobsearch- from already being in a job, to having a security clearance. We protect your privacy and do not send your data offshore.
Do I need to be security-cleared to apply for Whizdom's roles?
Not always. A security clearance may be needed dependent on the role and client requirements. Many government roles do require security clearance, however, Whizdom also recruits for many non-cleared positions. Some jobs may specify that you're eligible to obtain a clearance. If needed, we can sponsor clearances from Baseline to NV2 through our DISP membership. To be eligible, you must be an Australian citizen and have a checkable background.
