Employment Guru's Wanted

[Crimson Azure]

Well you don't have to be a guru but we are looking for people with industry specific skills.

Looking in all areas but here is a general idea:

• Trades
• Retail/customer service
• Post grad employment
• Banking & finance
• Teaching
• government
• Health
• Construction

Really any specific skill area you think you have the skills & experience to provide advice.

You could start a thread like:

'Ask a mechanic anything' or 'Teaching advice - Career advice for teachers'

Something like that, just put you hand up in this thread & then start the thread pertaining to your industry of expertise.

Being an employment board the questions you would answer will be work/employment related, not how to fix your car & such.

Also if there are two or three or more with the same skills that are willing to cintribute to a thread I'll just add their names to the OP of the thread.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Still looking for some who are willing to provide assistance.

I'm happy to help out if I can.

Have worked in a range of industries - telco, finance, insurance & hospitality. I've mainly worked in Business Intelligence / Analytical / Pricing / Marketing positions. Highest level of education is MBA.

I've done a fair bit of recruiting from juniors for hospitality to more middle mgmt white collar so can assist with what I look for in candidates.

Thanks mate, either start a thread in what you feel you are most knowledgeable in or wait for someone to as for help in these areas.

Feel free to start a thread 'working in the gaming industry' thread if you feel confident in responding to questions.

Might even be worth a 'working at crown' thread or something like that if we need to be specific seeing they are such a large employer.

Whatever you can add mate. Might be worth you going through some of the threads as with your exp you might have something to offer in a number of areas.

I've worked with state government departments, and am currently employed with a mining company. I've got about 5 years' experience in Human Resources, and am almost done with a Masters in HR Management. So, happy to give advice about things like CV writing, interviews, cover letters and what works for them and also on-the-job issues like performance management, company culture, remuneration, change management, training programs. Not sure how relevant the on-the-job things will be, but happy to give HR advice if people out there need it.

Happy to help if needed, otherwise perfectly happy to lurk.

I think if you started a thread on HR questions that would be good. In fact I have a couple of questions myself.
