Job Matching

SIU is partnering with Hospo HR to Job match candidates with employers. We work together to ensure the right person is matched with the right employer. If it doesn’t quite “fit” the first time we will try again. Candidate Skills Reports will be provided to employment service providers after each course, with details of employment referrals. 

SIU can only endorse skills if the candidate attends each class and completes all work and has a good work ethic. 

Employer Service Provider Referral Information

1) Ideally send all referrals to jim@serveitup.com.au by 3pm Thursday prior to the next course

2) Use this spreadsheet to send candidate referrals where possible 

3) We will call every referral to confirm their attendance and send a reminder text

4) We will provide daily attendance reports, weekly skills reports and weekly/fortnightly job updates. We will call those students who miss a class. 

5) We will invoice based on candidates coming to their second class @$1200 per person. Invoices will be sent at the end of each week.  Fees are GST free.
