So, I understand that Wise Employment is a job seeker provider so you do have to be on Centrelink…read moreto be involved with them. What my advice is though is that the job seeking places can be a nightmare and I've found one that treats you well, is understanding and will go out of their way to help you no matter what your situation. This is probably what you would hope to happen but it doesn't with many of the other service providers. I know now that I've put the word out, my friends have been able to change to Wise and have been much better off. When I was with them they were very understanding of my personal problems (death in the family) and were very helpful and understanding of my position. It can be a nightmare dealing with Centrelink and government places but Wise really took a lot of stress off my shoulders where the young girl, Valerie, was nothing but helpful, compassionate and understanding. I know I've reiterated the same points over again but it's very important to a lot of people that you get a good job seeker provider and I would highly recommend going to Wise Employment. Much nicer, more relaxed and actually provide a good service.

In the past forty years I worked in the corporate world and visited many prestigious private and…read morepublic offices. The professional attitude of Centerlink Windsor staff would fit into any of the prestigious corporate offices. They take the time to listen, to explain things in "easy to understand" manner and treat you as a valued person. Although it is not easy to coop with redundancy at mature age, I felt comfortable to deal with the staff at Centerlink Windsor. The only minor comment I can make that the staff dress-code is a bit relaxed.

Yes, everyone hates Centrelink. It's a well-known struggle with them to get anything organised or…read moretalk on the phone or meet or anything! In my history of dealing with this government organisation, I've found that this Centrelink on High St in Prahran is the nicest and most productive one out there. This is my personal experience, as I know everyone has his or her own horror stories about this place. I found them all really easy o talk to and with their help and as little as hassles as possible it was a fairly painless experience. In conjunction with the WISE employment down the road, they seem to be the nicest team of employment helpers you can get. With dealing in places like Mornington, Frankston and Moorabbin, I'm really glad I moved up to the Prahran offices, as it was a breeze from then on.

Thanks, Ms Monique! She transformed my CV into professional documentation with a great vocabulary…read more I applied with the CVs and letters made job-specific by 1300 Resume. I also kept applying for many roles using the same CVs (Project Engineer, Project Manager, etc.). Despite my lack of luck, one of the recruitment agencies passed through my application for a CSR role at a global organisation. All credit for the CVs goes to 1300 Resume (Monique), but I couldn't secure a Director/Manager role that would allow me to guide and control people as well as keep an eye on entire organisation and provide ideas/orders. Keep up the good work!

First of all I was surprised at the building. Carrera are located on City Road, opposite Eureka…read moreTower so I was expecting a corporate looking building. What I found was a tiny, single story, bright orange building that I must have walked past a hundred times in my life without ever noticing! My appointment with them was to have a look at potential marketing jobs as I'm looking to progress my career in digital. They were warm, friendly and very welcoming. They are not your typical recruiters - a lot more human and they actually took the time to really get to know me and what I wanted for the long term. The consultant I met was very professional and spoke knowledgeably about the industry which was impressive. They seem to know their stuff - unlike other recruiters I've been to in the past. They followed up with me about two weeks later just to touch base which was nice. Overall it was a pleasant experience and I hope that it eventuates into a new job for moi!

It is unfortunate that one single person can pollute a company and tarnish the name. For me,…read moreCarrera Partners was not a great experience. A consultant who had me head all the way out to see her to tell me there was nothing available at the moment. Well HELLO, this could've easily been done over the phone. And then, offer me roles that I'm clearly not interested in because, wait for it...... she hasn't bothered to ask me what kind of role or industry I am interested in and I've already been in there for too long. Not my first choice in talent agencies.
