The Commission is working towards improving the number of Indigenous Australians working in the APS and their prospects for career development.

From this page you can find out about the steps being taken by the Commission and the APS to help Indigenous Australians.

Indigenous graduate & cadetship opportunities
Graduate applications extended until Friday, 12 June
The Australian Public Service (APS) Commission coordinates recruitment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and graduates for career opportunities in a large range of Australian Government agencies.

By lodging a single application with us you may be considered for employment opportunities in over 40 Australian Government agencies!

We are seeking Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to work in a variety of fields in the APS from international relations through to the environment. This also includes, but is not limited to, opportunities to work in Indigenous affairs.

The kit is available online along with a list of resources and Menu of actions.
