Post Placement Support

Target Group
All staff
Summary
Post Placement Support (PPS) is a great way of gathering intelligence that can drive a strong plan to ensure job seekers maximise their sustainable employment opportunity. This task should not be a “tick a box” exercise, it is a critical component to ensure we are identifying any red flags that exist within early stages of employment and act upon them accordingly. If performed correctly, PPS will be seen as a genuine value add to your employers customer service experience and will provide a support mechanism for the new employee as they enter into a new environment.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
• Be Prepared – Go in with a plan that is tailored to the employee
• Transparency and Clarity – Is the Employer / Employee clear on the benefits of spending the time to answer these questions?
• Communication – How to identify concerns by listening for tones and language
• Action Plans – How to record and escalate information to the appropriate person

Reverse Marketing with Intent

3pm AEDT (2:30pm in SA, 2pm in QLD, 1:30pm in NT and 12 noon in WA)
Target Group
Frontline staff that engage with employers.
Reverse Marketers
Summary
In this webinar Matt Luttrell will discuss reverse marketing strategies to place priority jobactive and DES job seekers into the hidden job market. The focus is on making contact with specific employers. It will explore getting the job seeker and employment services practitioners ready to make a reverse marketing call, and how to manage the call including handling objections.
The focus of this webinar is not on vacancy development for job matching. So what can you expect? It will cover becoming “one” with the employer so that we understand the fit with the employee and the new opportunity that presents. Reverse marketing isn’t all about providers getting a placement, it’s much bigger than that! The placement is the result – the real key is understanding what the employer is looking for and matching a strong candidate to an opportunity.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
• Preparation is key
• Be in a positive mindset
• What approaches have the best results
• What to look for, what to listen for
• What is the best way to respond to objections
