2.00pm AEDT (1.30pm in SA, 1.00pm in QLD, 12.30pm in NT and 11.00am in WA)

TARGET GROUP

Frontline staff looking for extra objection handling skills

SUMMARY

The purpose is to provide you with objection handling tools that you can use, to take your job seekers from the precontemplation stage to action / job placement.

This clinic is focussed on how to overcome the difficult issue of objections, it is at no cost to you (free!) and it will run for approximately 2-hours.

Paul Diving is our objections handling guru, and he will provide you with advice, strategies, confidence and a range of responsive comments that you can add to your objection handling tool kit.

Rex Eagle is our objections handling emeritus and will provide you with his words of wisdom.

Audience: Anyone can attend, but this is a must for Frontline workers looking to improve their objection handling skills. If after registering you find that you cannot attend, don’t worry, the link to the recording will be emailed to you. 

ABOUT THE CARE AND SUPPORT SECTOR

The government spend on the NDIS was $21.5 billion in 2019 -2020, and it is increasing to over $30 billion by 2024 -2025. NDIS funds over 16,000 providers to deliver person centred services to over 400,000 people.

This sector is growing, which means that Australia is experiencing a huge demand for workers.

So what does it mean for the workers in the disability support sector?

• Growth means job security !

• Flexibility – works with your family life and other responsibilities – a great work life balance

• Variety – each day is different

• Mobility – get on the road and take your career with you

• Choice of job roles, many of which are level entry (no skills required, just common sense and a healthy attitude) – more than just a desk job !

• The sector loves to teach people on the job, so as your experience increases, new opportunities will open up for you.

• Have a say over how your career progresses


It offers security, grow, flexibility and choice, yet we are still finding it difficult to convince job seekers to work in the care and support sector.

OTHER

This is the recording of the clinic held in September 2021. The recording runs of approximately two hours.

Redesign Your Client Resumes to Avoid Online Applications Screening Them OUT

Thursday 27 January 2022

3.00pm AEDT (2.30pm in SA, 2.00pm in QLD, 1.30pm in NT and 12 noon in WA)

EVENT REGISTRATION

TARGET GROUP

All frontline staff

SUMMARY

Did you know that online application systems are rejecting your client resumes for simple things like a font type?

Have you and your client ever pulled together a great job application, flicked it off, waited, waited and waited, and received no reply? These days many organisations use HR Software to screen out documents based on formatting, lack of key words and other things that you may not be aware of.

The change from human eyes reviewing the initial application to computer software analysing the application has changed the way successful applications are formatted. This webinar will provide an understanding of those changes and how they are impacting on your clients success.

It will make you look at addressing criteria and your resume templates in a whole new light.

This is ideal for frontline staff who are advising clients on the application process and what they need to do to avoid being rejected by online application / recruitment databases / HR Software.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • An understanding of how online applications are processed by screening software is essential to know so your clients are not screened out on the first pass
  • The importance of key words in your job seeker’s application and matching these to the advertisement or industry that they are applying for
  • Formatting and making things pretty- why this does not work with online applications. Fonts to use, and fonts not to use!
  • Keeping it simple – how irrelevant or complex information on your online resume or application can be hurting your client’s chances of ending up on the ” Yes” list
  • Resume – the do’s and the don’ts, how to address gaps in employment history and how to adapt your resume to specific job applications.
  • The common mistakes that blocks resumes from getting through.
