Pine Rivers Employers get behind jobs campaign
Jobs worth almost $1,069,000 have been secured in June in the Pine Rivers Press area as a result of a community jobs campaign.
The Sarina Russo Job Access campaign had been successful because of amazing support from the local business community, said Strathpine-based manager Meaghan Theobald.
The annual salaries of all jobseekers placed in June have been added together to determine the final figure.
B & D Doors & Openers was one of the most supportive employers, Ms Theobald said as she took time out to thank them last week.
‘‘I’ve been dealing with Myra (from B&D) for 18 months,’’ she said. ‘‘It is all the little things that make a good employer and she’s just great.’’
Sarina Russo Job Access put a lot of energy into marketing the skills of jobseekers directly to the employers, Ms Theobald said.
Skills and processes can be taught on the job but the right attitude is a wonderful commodity for jobseekers to possess.
Key Sarina Russo Job Access job search strategies which had helped many candidates get jobs include:
- Setting specific, measurable and timely goals such as phoning three employers within their industry of choice every day.
- Research. Find out what the employers need.
- Developing a prospects list.
- Proactively look for a job because jobs don’t look for you.
Ms Theobald said she continued to encourage local employers needing staff to contact Sarina Russo Job Access.
There were still many experienced and skilled local jobseekers on the books, she said.
