Hero Foundation: Search and apply for jobs on Employment Hero Jobs – Employment Hero Australia

Use the search page

In addition to being matched to roles automatically, you can search for jobs yourself at any time. Head to jobs.employmenthero.com and use the Find Work page to browse and search the full jobs board.

The Employment Hero Jobs homepage — tap 'Find Work' or log in to get started.

Search and apply for your first role

Step by step: Search and apply

Step 1: Always log in first

Log in before you start searching. Without being logged in, you won't see your Matched Roles section — which appears at the top of the Find Work page and shows the most relevant roles based on your profile.

Step 2: Check your Matched Roles first

Your Matched Roles appear at the top of the page. These are the roles the platform considers the best fit for your profile right now. Check these before anything else.

Important

All matched roles on this page use 1-Click Apply. This means tapping Apply will immediately send your current profile. If you want to submit a custom CV or cover letter for one of these matched roles, search for the same role in the search bar below and apply through those search results instead — not from the matched roles section.

Your matched roles appear at the top of the search page — look for the "Your matches" header and the purple left border.

Step 3: Use the search bar and filters

Type a job title, skill, or location into the search bar. Use Show Filters to narrow results by location, employment type (full-time, part-time, casual), and salary. Sort by relevance to see the best matches first.

Step 4: Read the job listing carefully

Click any role to open the full job listing. You'll see:

Match Analysis score: A percentage showing how well your profile fits the role. 70%+ means you're a strong candidate.
"Top Candidate" badge: Shown when you're among the strongest applicants. Apply promptly when you see this.
"1-Click Apply" tag: This means the role uses the fast one-click application. See Article 5 for what that means.
Job details: Location, salary range, employment type, and posting date.

A job listing showing the 1-Click Apply badge, Match Analysis score, and "Top Candidate" status.

The Match Analysis screen — this shows which of your skills match the role requirements.

Step 5: Apply and answer any screening questions

Click 'Apply now' and confirm your application. Some roles include AI-powered screening questions immediately after applying. Answer these straight away — most hiring managers only shortlist candidates who have completed them.

The application confirmation screen — tap "Apply now" to confirm and submit your profile.

Screening questions — answer these immediately after applying to give yourself the best chance of being shortlisted.

Step 6: Send a message to the hiring manager

After applying (and after any screening questions), you'll have the option to send a personalised message to the hiring manager. The platform will generate an AI-drafted introduction based on your profile. Use it as a starting point, then personalise it — adding something specific about why you're interested in this particular role and employer makes a real difference.

The AI-powered messaging screen — edit the draft to make it personal before sending.
