Personal information and documentation collected and held may include resumés, academic transcripts, interview notes, reference information and test results. They will primarily be stored electronically on NZ Post Group’s candidate database.

You may request removal or correction of your personal information at any time. Otherwise, it will be kept in the NZ Post Group Career Centre for twelve months before being destroyed, unless you have an application still in progress, or you retain an active applicant profile with NZ Post Group.

• If we have briefed you on a vacancy and you have authorised us to do so, NZ Post Group’s Career Centre may provide information about you, whether provided by you or a third party nominated by you for that purpose, to the relevant NZ Post Group manager in relation to the particular vacancy.
• NZ Post Group’s Career Centre will only contact and collect personal information from any former employer, principal or other person you have nominated as a referee if you have specifically authorised us to do so.
• After you accept an offer of employment with NZ Post Group or enter into a Contract for Services with NZ Post Group, your information will become part of NZ Post Group’s employee records or contractor management records, respectively. This information will be held in confidence and not disclosed to anyone outside NZ Post Group without your consent, except trusted third parties who help us process, administer and store your information.  If disclosed outside NZ Post Group, it will be protected by strict confidentiality agreements.
• Your information will only be used for the purposes of your employment with, or contractor management by, NZ Post Group.
