Hey! In relation to jobridge I just want to know if you can apply to companies on the scheme 3 months after applying for job seekers allowance or 3 months after being accepted for it?

Once you are in payment for 78 days you can apply for jobbridge.

So that is 78 days from acceptance. I was just confused because I recieved a backdated payment from when I first applied, which is over 78 days ago! Thank you

No, 78 days from application, provided there are no disallowances. And that's not 78 calendar days, that's excluding Sundays! So if it was 13 weeks since you signed on, you weren't disqualified for anything, then you're eligible for JobBridge.

Hi folks , I've just been called up for a second interview for a Job bridge internship and I'm hopeful that I will get it . I was recently laid off from a part time job on the casual workers jobseekers allowance 3 weeks ago to be precise and I am now on job seekers allowance full time .I'm not sure whether those casual workers ie part time dole would count towards this 3 month criteria can anyone enlighten me.

Thanks
