We only accept resumes as part of a job application. 

You may be having problems uploading your resume because the file size is too large. Files cannot exceed 2Mb in size. To help you reduce your file size, these tips might be helpful:

• Compress pictures/tickets to make them smaller
• Use .jpg format for pictures/certificate/tickets, and set your scanner for email quality
• Try not to add too many pictures/certificates/tickets to your document

If you are still having problems, check to see if your connection is working by visiting other websites. If other websites are still working, and there is a problem with the Thiess careers website, please contact our support team at hiring@thiess.com. We will try to solve the problem as quickly as possible.

On the left-hand side of the Careers page, you'll see a link called Existing Applicant. Click on it, then select the ‘Forgotten your password’ option. This will send your password directly to the email address you initially registered under.

Log in as an ‘Existing Applicant’ and select ‘Change Password’ from your homepage. You will then be asked for your old password and your new password, as well as the secret question you would like to use for identification. Your secret question and answer will be used if you ever forget your password.

Once you have submitted your application online, you will only be able to amend your personal details, update limited information on your profile (i.e. Education and Employment), or update your resume by attaching a new file.

When you hit ‘Submit’, a confirmation screen should appear. If you're not sure of your application status, you can log in as an ‘Applicant’, and check under ‘Application Status’. If your application form has not gone through properly, your application status will be incomplete.

When you log in as an ‘Applicant’, any positions for which you have applied will be listed on your home page under ‘Submitted Job Applications’. You'll be able to view the title of the job, the date and time it was submitted, and the application itself.

If you get this message it means that the email address is already present within our database.

If you have created a previous account but can't remember your password, you can select ‘Forgotten your Password’ to help you to log in again.

If you have not previously applied with Thiess, please use a different email address to log in.
