I have been asked to get a police check prior to being awarded an I.T. Dev Contract. I really want this job, but need to provide this check as soon as possible to. So my question where can i go to get a background check?
I'm in Australia and i can see that the Australian Federal Police Offer a police check via fax. I don't have a fax machine, how else can I get this check done quickly?
Any pointers really helpful thanks.
You actually can get this done two ways:
The Australian Federal Police do provide a 'National Police Check' online, however this required you to download, print, sign and upload a document. Personally this process did take some time to deliver the police check.

This service can also be done quicker, without this download, print, sign and upload process via a third party provider. Site: https://www.nationalcrimecheck.com.au
Look up some reviews on this service before trying, goodluck :)
I'm going to address only a part of this question - the part about having a fax machine. There are a ridiculous number of online fax services available. Some are for sending only, and others are for both sending and receiving. Determine your need, and do a Google search.
