Looking for work...

[old_mate]

G'day all


Just after any ideas and advice regarding my missus who is looking for a different employer. She has applied for more than 50 positions through seek.com.au, mycareer.com.au and the like and apart from a couple of informal interviews has not received any offers, interest, anything. It's starting to get her really down. The recruitment companies that advertise on those websites are shocking. Not following up, advising positions having been filled the same day the job is advertised, telling her that her current package of 45k inclusive of super is too much etc etc.

She currently is in a case manager/administrative role within a large insurance company (major sponsor of this weekend's GP, Billy Connolly does their ad's) in their life insurance department. Ideally she wants to get into a Personal Assistant or HR administration role. Just general admin type stuff not within the insurance sector

has anyone here been through a similar deal with recruitment companies and can give us some advice? or anyone know of someone looking for a keen, enthusiastic, hard working chick who is really wanting to learn and advance in her career?
