for example do you need some sort of social security number

I think the usual requirements that they ask for is proof that you are who you say you are (passport), whether you are permanent (visa approval) and address (bills, bank statements, Australian driving licence etc.).
When you start earning you'll require a Tax File Number which is from the Australian tax office. (Not sure how this is usually arranged since we had an accountant get ours since we were earning in Australia before we moved here.)
