The status of your employment is a big part of a lender's assessment of your home loan application. When you submit a loan application, the bank will give your loan a credit score based on the overall risk that you pose.
Your employment and income stability forms a major part of this score. They take into account:
- The length of time in your current job,
- The length of time in your industry (study included),
- The tendency of people in your industry to default on loans, e.g. doctors are considered low risk while builders are high risk,
- Your employment status i.e. full time, part time, casual, contract, etc., and
- The stability of your income i.e. casual, overtime, bonuses, commission, etc.
