I had never really been interested in recruitment agencies or really have any idea of what services…read morethey can offer to people looking for a job. However, since being introduced to Hudson's Recruitment I have come to quickly learn what a valuable resource they can be for job seekers. Ultimately what they do is act as a middle man between companies and employers looking for employees and those looking for work. They help create a profile of who you are as a person, what your personality is like and what kind of job you are looking for and in what industries. They then forward relevant jobs ahead to you or help with where to go looking for jobs. The woman I met with was very lovely and didn't treat me like a naïve University student which I was a little worried about. Since then she has been keeping in contact, providing me with updates on how things are going which is great and very helpful. Do be careful however, because some people feel there is an obligation to take any opportunities that a recruitment agency gives you even if it's not exactly what you were looking for. Don't feel pressure, just look into the ones that will suit you best.

After finishing University and not having been offered a job, I unashamedly turned to Centrelink to…read morepay me while I kept looking. As part of being on my particular payment, I had to attend an employment solutions office where I can get help and support on how and where to go about looking for a job. Having been referred to Mission Australia by Centrelink, I was very underwhelmed. The office itself looks a little dodgy and there was a few interesting people waiting out the front for the doors to open. However, the man who conducted my interview was very nice and seemed to have gone through the process numerous times before. He explained everything that we needed to fill out and hand in and then organised a follow up appointment in the instance that I still found myself unemployed. He also said that everyone who is member with them has access to South Australian and national job guides, internet and printing facilities which is really great and can go a long way to help improve one's chance of getting a job.

I was engaged as an Authorised Representative for a participant involved in mediation matter with…read moreChas Cini of MERS. During conversation, Mr Cini was abrasive and rude, continually talking over us and cutting us off mid sentence. There were multiple counts of unprofessional conduct during communication and he did not seem competent in using email platforms. In one 24hr period, we received in excess of 5 emails from Mr Cini that were completely contradictory by nature of direction. Other email notifications were received that he had attempted to recall as we were not an intended recipient. This oversight shows a clear lack of interest in protecting the privacy of others. One of the main concerns was we had received numerous emails (at all hours of the night) which he then tried to recall as we were not the intended recipient (other party in mediation was the intended recipient) but we had received them and could open and read them. One email in particular contained derogatory and disparaging comments (written by Mr Cini) targeting me, but was intended for the other party involved in the mediation. The comments were callous, insensitive and demonstrated flagrant apathy toward the health and wellbeing of others. I have addressed these matters in particular as I feel they are pertinent to Mr Cini's role and/or recommendation as an Employment Relations Mediator. However, as qualified as he may be, quality was lacking and business acumen was inadequate. Based on my experience, I would not recommend at all.
