We start with the job, not just the vacancy. The route changes depending on the duties, salary, employer readiness, candidate background and immigration pathway.
Mechanic and technician roles need a role-specific check of duties, salary, qualification evidence, experience and current employment permit eligibility.
Clarify workshop requirements, diagnostic tools, vehicle types, salary and location.
Screen candidates for technical experience, references and workshop fit.
Assess permit route, qualification evidence and employer documentation.
Coordinate visa and arrival planning before the start date.
Support early-stage integration, communication and retention.
For General Employment Permit and Critical Skills Employment Permit roles, we help employers understand the route, documents, candidate evidence, visa steps and practical onboarding tasks before the case moves forward.
International hiring works best when candidates understand the job, location, documents, first weeks and community support around them. We support the practical handover that helps employers retain people after placement.
