Employment experience
If you have more than six months experience in paid employment, it is recommended that you include these details on your QTAC application. Your employment does not have to be related to the courses you wish to study.
It is essential that your employment experience be substantiated by written statements from your employer/s or, if self employed, by your accountant, solicitor or tax agent. These statements should be on official letterhead and must include:
- duties performed
- length of service - must include the date commenced and date finished (if not currently employed)
- type of employment (full-time, part-time or casual)
If you have been self-employed, provide a statement from your accountant, solicitor or tax agent.
Please note: A personal resume, curriculum vitae or tax return is not sufficient for assessment.
If you are 21 years or over and applying through the Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC) on the basis of work experience alone, you are encouraged to also sit the Special Tertiary Admission Test STAT. Results in STAT may be combined with your employment experience to increase your overall chances of admission.
