Where do I go to view and apply for available roles at Rio Tinto?
From the Rio Tinto Careers vacancies page, click on the link that most closely matches the type of position you're looking for. This will direct you to the appropriate career section where you can view and apply for available roles. Please note that there are links to separate pages for graduates (recent and upcoming university graduates) and students (current university students).
How do I create a profile and apply online?
To create a profile, click on the "Sign in" link in the top right corner of the Job Search page. After reviewing/accepting the privacy agreement, click on the button for "New User" and follow the prompts to create a user name and password. Once you have created the account, use the fields available on the "Job Search" tab to search for positions. Once you have found a position you are interested in, click on the "Apply Online" button below the posting to edit and submit your application. If you do not find a position posted that matches what you're looking for, please submit a general profile by selecting "Create/Access my profile" on the right hand side of the job search results.
I do not see a position that I am interested in, but would like to submit a general profile. What should I do?
If you have not done so already, create a new account. To create a profile, click on the "Sign in" link in the top right corner of the Job Search page. After reviewing the privacy agreement, click "New User" and follow the prompts to create a user name and password. On the Job Search page, click on the "Create/Access my profile" link on the right hand side of the job search results.
Can I submit my resume or CV via email or postal mail instead of creating a profile or applying directly to an open role?
No. We don't accept resumes or CVs submitted via email, postal mail, in person or through any medium other than our online application tool. To view and apply for open positions, please visit our careers website.
How do I find positions that could be interesting for me?
To search for available jobs within Rio Tinto, please use the search fields available on the "Job Search" page of our career section. If you are having issues with the job search function, please refer to the tips below:
- Start by clearing the search form with the "Clear" button
- Make sure your search is not too specific. If you enter search criteria but there are no jobs in the search results, it is possible there are no jobs currently posted that match all your specific criteria. Clear the search page using the "Clear" button and search with fewer or different criteria. This is not a guarantee of results; as even with fewer criteria, it is still possible that few or no jobs are posted that match your criteria exactly
- If you know the job number for a specific position, it is recommended to search on the job number only. No additional criteria are needed. Make sure the form is clear, enter the job number and click Search. You can also search using just part of the job number
- If a specific job can't be found, it is likely the job is no longer posted. Do not click the back as this will erase your search criteria.
I started an application, but wasn't able to finish, so I closed out of the application. What should I do?
Click the "Sign In" link in the top right corner of the job search page. After reviewing/accepting the privacy agreement, enter your username and password and click "Login." Click on the "My Job Page" tab. The "My Submissions" tab will display your jobs submissions, including Draft Submissions. Select "Finish Draft Submission" for the job in question to complete the application process. If the position does not show, please search for the job and start the process again. To avoid this, always ensure that you click "Save as Draft" before closing out of the application.
Can I make changes to my application and/or apply for another position?
Changes can be made to any application as long as the job is still posted. To make changes to your applications, you'll need to access your profile. Click the "Sign In" link in the top right corner of the job search page. After reviewing/accepting the privacy agreement, enter your username and password and click "Login" then select "My Job Page." The "My Submissions" tab will display. Next, click the "View/Edit Submission" link next to the application that you wish to edit. To view and apply for other jobs, click the "Job Search" tab at the top of the page and search using the available fields.
What are the requirements to apply? (deadline, work permit, qualifications, etc.)
Requirements for each position are outlined in the job description for each posted role. Please review the job posting to see the qualifications required for any specific position. To do this, find the job using the job search fields, then click on the job title.
The system keeps saying my e-mail address already exists. What should I do?
This means that a profile has previously been created on our site using this email address. In order to retrieve your username, click on the "Sign In" link in the top right corner of the Job Search page. After reviewing/accepting the privacy agreement, click "Forgot your username?". Enter the email address in the appropriate field and click "Validate." The system will return the username associated with the account on which the email address is found. If the account shown does not belong to you - i.e. if someone else has created a profile using your email address - please contact us ASAP at riotintorecruitmentsystemsupport@icareerhelp.com so we can rectify the situation. If you also need to retrieve your password, click "Forgot your password?". Enter your User Name and Email Address in the appropriate fields and click "OK." You will receive a Change Password email. Open this email and follow the instructions. If you are having problems with the link, please open the attachment sent with the email and try again. Please note that this email will only be good once to access the application process or change your password. Once you reach the change password screen, enter the requested information. The temporary password in the email should be entered in the Old Password field.
