THE AREEA Skills Connect Perth Jobseeker Forum is now just two weeks away and candidates are already proving to be a high-calibre range of both entry-level and experienced potentials.

Featuring 100 of Western Australia’s most enthusiastic jobseekers, many of whom are skilled with relevant experience, the Perth Jobseeker Forum is set to be a recruitment hub for resource industry employers.

AREEA members are invited to meet these motivated and job-ready candidates at the Peth Convention and Exhibition Centre on Friday, 30 August 201.

Whether you have entry-level vacancies or just want to better engage with the Perth community, speaking directly with jobseekers around your organisation, its roles and required skills can provide prospective talent with the motivation they need to plan a career in the resources industry.

Participate in the AREEA Skills Connect Jobseeker Forum to:

• Present on your organisation’s projects, services and employment opportunities;
• Meet one-on-one with jobseekers;
• Get access to pre-screened candidate profiles (e.g. job suitability and willingness to travel);
• Host a booth to offer information about training, assessments and roles;
• Market your organisation through logo placement and promotional opportunities; and
• Promote your organisation’s involvement through AREEA member communications and the quarterly Resource People magazine.

With critical funding from the Australian Government, AREEA Skills Connect is a partnership between Australia’s peak industry bodies and pre-eminent organisations in workforce related fields.

The Perth Jobseeker Forum is part of the AREEA Skills Connect project mandate to facilitate the development and transition of key skills across resources, construction and related industries.

Join us in Perth this month to help develop the pool of skilled, flexible workers that will lead Australia’s resource industry for decades to come.
