NAB has launched a nationwide recruitment drive to find more than 130 new employees who will have the option to work from home.
Demand for home loans has strengthened, and the new recruits will undertake credit assessments to help fellow Australians get into their new home, NAB reports.
The new employees will join NAB's geographically-dispersed Personal Bank Operations Team, which helps customers achieve their home ownership goals through fast and reliable credit approval, the bank says.
The financial institution is prioritising its search for new employees in regional areas of Australia.
"COVID has changed the world in many ways, including the way we work at NAB," NAB executive personal bank operations Graeme Sayers said.
"Over the past year more than 80 per cent of our workforce have been working remotely and supporting our customers by phone, by video or online.
"The Australian housing market has performed much better than expected over the past six months, and we are going through a period of very exciting growth.

"At NAB, home lending applications for January were stronger than we have seen for five years and as demand continues to grow, we are focused on ensuring what our customers experience is as seamless as possible.
"That's why we are looking to regional areas of Australia, including Dubbo in our search for talented team members.
"By the end of September, we aim to provide unconditional approval in under an hour for around 30 per cent of our home loans.
"The ability to do these roles from anywhere provides great career opportunities for talented individuals in Dubbo and the surrounding region.
"NAB already has 2000 [staff members] who are located in regional and rural Australia and we are looking forward to growing our regionally-based team."
Applications are now open for the roles.
There are a mix of part-time and full-time roles available, as well as permanent and 12-month contracts.
