Case Study: How we helped Jeff find a job interstate

Moving interstate can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to securing employment from thousands of kilometres away.

That’s where our team of specialist recruiters come in, they handle everything in the background and simplify the job search process to make your move as pain free as possible.

This is how Frontline candidate Jeff landed a role 750kms away with the assistance of Mel Flavell, Agency Owner of our Northern NSW Education office.

How it started:

Jeff originally based in Melbourne, Victoria reached out us to chat about a role he saw advertised on SEEK. The role he was interested in was based in his hometown of Port Macquarie as he intended to relocate.

As Mel’s office is based in Newcastle, NSW, over 1,000 kilometres away from Jeff in Melbourne, they spent a lot of time getting to know each other over the phone.

The application process:

While initially pursuing the Port Macquarie opportunity, another candidate secured the position. Undeterred, Mel proposed a position in Orange, NSW, which Jeff was open to.

Mel provided extensive support, furnishing Jeff with resources to prepare for the interview, including insights into the interview panel, details about the school, and information into the local rental market so he could understand the cost of living prior to booking the interview.

The job interview and offer:

The interview process moved quickly once the introduction between Jeff and his potential employer. After a successful virtual panel interview, Jeff was flown to the school in Orange to have a follow up interview in person. Jeff aced the interview and was offered the position on the spot.

Jeff’s review of Frontline’s service:

Reflecting on his experience, Jeff expressed profound gratitude for Mel’s exceptional support throughout the whole process:

“I just cannot thank Mel at Frontline Education enough. Seeking a new teaching position in NSW and her help was huge. Sent her my CV and references, and she liaised with the school on my behalf, doing all the work and then some more! Personable, friendly, and so easy to work with. And yes, I got the job! But I will always appreciate the incredible assistance provided by Mel at Frontline Education.”
