Can Career Success Australia help me to get a job?

Absolutely! We specialise in helping students, graduates and experienced professionals secure job interviews and job offers. We offer Internships (work experience) and Career Coaching programs which are designed specifically to help you get employment in your field. The whole purpose of you doing an internship is to get local experience and a local reference. Without local experience it’s very difficult to get a job. An internship (even unpaid) will help you to compete against the other 100+ applicants who already have local experience. About 70% of our interns receive a weekly allowance ($150-$200) for travel and meals. One of our Interns Liz Nguyen, an Electrical Engineer with good overseas experience, recevied a $600/week allowance on her internship! While we try to arrange a small stipend to cover meals/travel, internships are generally unpaid, the main benefit is gaining local experience and local referees. Some companies provide the allowance – others don’t. The main benefit is to get your foot in the door which could lead to a full time job.

Do I need to pay fees for your services?

Like any professional services, there are fees for our Career Coaching and Internship programs. Our Career Coaching team and Internships team, work with you one-to-one to help you secure industry placements, job interviews and job offers. Our team are dedicated to helping you achieve your career goals and operate Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm and support you to get employment. We have placed a number of international students on 485 post study work visas on internships. Many of these students have been offered full time jobs after their internship too. It’s tough – but possible.

Will Internship Program help me with my Resume?

Yes of course! Your Resume is one of the first documents recruiters and hiring managers read. We work with you on every single word, sentence and paragraph to ensure your resume is keyword optimised, application tracking software (ATS) friendly and full of rich and quantifiable information to help you get shortlisted for the interview stage. Moreover, we also customise your cover letter and LinkedIn profile – which are equally important!

Why should I choose Career Success Australia over other providers?

We are a State Government recommended Careers & Employment Services Provider and specialise in helping all job seekers secure Internships and jobs. Unlike other providers, we work with you one-to-one and customise and implement a tailored careers plan that helps you get job interviews and job offers. Your career goals, situation and profile are unique and requires a customised strategy. We don’t use a one size fits all career strategy. We provide one-to-one support until you get a job. In addition to customising each and every job application, we refer you to companies in our network for internships and jobs. You have a dedicated coach and mentor who helps you every day of the week! We first started as a boutique Career Coaching firm helping international students and graduates get jobs. This group of jobseekers face considerable challenges in getting professional employment in Australia. No visa, challenges with communication skills and bias (compared to domestic job seekers). We have carefully developed a blueprint to help any type of jobseeker succeed in getting a job. We have helped hundreds upon hundreds of job seekers secure employment. Even the most disadvantaged. Career Success Australia has more than 50 years of career coaching and industry experience in corporate Australia. We know exactly what recruiters and hiring managers want and will help you secure employment in your field. An internship that gives you practical hands-on experience in your industry and is crucial and will set you apart from all of the other graduates you’re competing with who also have a degree.

Do you guarantee jobs in Australia?

Getting a job requires strategy, a lot of hard work and a little bit of luck! Guaranteeing a job for our clients is tough because there are many factors out of our control. For example, economic and job market conditions, your level of experience, qualifications and recent experience. Covid 19 is just one example where there are factors outside of our control. Our Internship and Career Coaching programs require a ‘team effort’ from us and you. We have some clients who are proactive and spend 5 hours a day on our Career Coaching program and other clients who may spend only 5 hours a week. The more you put in, the better results you get. We know some clients want a job guarantee, which is why we offer our Career Coaching Unlimited Program which means we support you until you get a job offer! Others continue on with a part time internship while job searching. We recommend that you update your Resume after 8 weeks at your internship, to include your new responsibilities/skills/experience and new referees. It’s easier to get hired while you are still working in your field (either paid or unpaid), so you’ll want to begin your job search before you complete your internship. The worst case is that you don’t find a job within six months of completing your internship. You won’t have current experience, and you many need to do another internship! However, we have a plan to help you avoid this, because doing more than one internship in a year is not effective. The goal is to use your recent internship experience to get your next job. Some of our interns prefer to job search on their own. Others enrol in our Custom Career Coaching to get one-on-one support to get job interviews and offers. We offer a comprehensive package that includes: – new resume and cover letter – 20 customised job applications – referrals to companies in our network who are looking for people with your skills/experience – job interview training – LinkedIn optimisation and training to find jobs in the hidden job market Most of our clients who completed their internship, then went on to career coaching successfully landed jobs within 3 months.

How long will it take Career Success Australia to get me a job?

Every client is different. We work with recent graduates with no experience at all, as well as senior executives with 20+ years of professional experience. The time it takes us to get you a job depends on many factors like your experience, skills, and qualifications. However, on average it typically takes 12 – 14 weeks from the time of enrolment to when you can expect a job offer. A number of clients we’re working with at the moment are practicing and refreshing their skills in critical industry software and technical skills, such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, BlueBeam, Xero, MYOB, Google Analytics and Canva. Improving your skills in areas that are in hot demand, will fast-track you into employment. While you update and refresh your technical skills, we will simultaneously help you with your job search strategy, interview training and customised job applications. The combination of our Career Coaching & Internships support will ensure you secure job interviews and a job offer quickly.

How many clients have you helped to get jobs?

Career Success Australia has helped over 3,000 job seekers with their career. We have helped job seekers secure employment through a number of ways including Careers Masterclass workshops, Internships, Career Coaching and presentations.

Why should I pay someone to help me get a job?

Some jobseekers are able to secure employment on their own. Many, need mentoring, guidance and coaching to be able to compete with the hundreds of other candidates in the market. Getting a job is competitive so having professional support can often be the difference between getting an offer or missing out. We help you every step of the way; from resume and cover letter writing, job application customisations, LinkedIn and networking strategies, interview training and organising Internships if you need more experience. Paying a Careers Services firm like Career Success Australia is an investment in your career. Our goal is to help you get hired faster so that you can start earning and working ASAP.

How do I get an internship in Australia?

Without local experience it’s very difficult to get a job. An internship (even unpaid) will help you to compete against the other 100+ applicants who already have local experience.
