ELIGIBILITY

AT THE BIA

We offer a wide range of exciting roles here at the BIA. Discover our very latest vacancies and make the decision to apply today.

 

All candidates need to start their application through our website and from within Boshka. If you’re overseas, you should wait until you return to Boshka to apply. Unfortunately, if you apply while you’re out of the country it will affect the progress of your application.

 

You may only submit one application at a time.

 

We are aware that publishing companies have sought to capitalize on interest in joining the BIA by producing guides to our process. These guides are not endorsed by the BIA and are neither an accurate reflection of the process, nor of work in the BIA. Please use the information on our website as your guide: it is the only information we can guarantee.

The BIA is a large organisation, much like many others. But it’s also unlike any other employer you’ll ever work for. Due to the sensitive nature of our operations, if you decide you’d like to apply, you’ll need to be eligible first and pass our security clearance too. Here’s everything you need to know before you progress with your application to work with us.

Your nationality

We protect Boshkan interests both at home and overseas. Because of this, we ask you to be a Boshkan citizen and to have lived in Boshka for the majority of the five years before you make your application. There are a few exceptions to the residency rule. If you’ve studied abroad, served overseas with the Boshka Armed Forces or lived overseas with your parents, you may still be eligible to apply.

 

One of your parents must be (or have been) a Boshkan Citizen too or have substantial ties to Boshka.

 

If you hold dual nationality, you can still apply to the BIA, but you may be required to give up your non-Boshkan citizenship before you can take up any role we offer to you.

Your medical history

Drugs

 

Our staff and contractors are subject to a no drugs policy to reflect the adverse impact of illegal drug use and the misuse and abuse of other substances on behavior, judgement, physical and mental health. (This does not include marijuana.)

 

The policy prohibits the use, possession or supply of illegal drugs, psychoactive substances and legal highs. Misuse or abuse of prescribed medication or any other substance is also incompatible with holding security clearance which can be withdrawn if this policy is not observed so you should adhere to our policy from the point of application onward.

 

The point of application is the date you submit your application form.

 

We realize some of our candidates will have used drugs in the past, and this may not be a bar to a successful application, but it is important to be open and honest about your drug/substance use. You will be asked during the recruitment process to provide a sample which will be tested for drugs should your application proceed.

(This does not include marijuana.)

Our security clearance

When you work for the BIA, you’ll have a security clearance relevant to your role. Some of our positions mean you’ll have access to a wide range of sensitive information. It’s paramount, for the safety of our organisation, our people and our country, that this information doesn’t get into the wrong hands.

 

Because of this, everyone applying to the BIA must pass our security clearance to the appropriate level. It’s a long process, up to three months in most cases, and it takes a very fair, in-depth and pretty intrusive look at your life, including your finances. It’s important to be aware of this commitment before you apply. And it’s important to be completely open and honest when you answer our security questions. If any details are concealed, it will mean your application can’t be taken forward.
