🔥 Ask a Recruiter... Julia Thorpe

🔥Ask a Recruiter...

Is a monthly, online session where you get direct access to experienced recruiters across different industries.

Every month, a guest recruiter will share a brief update on market trends, hiring practices, and in-demand skills within their area of expertise.

But that’s not all — this is your chance to ask anything you’ve always wanted to know from a recruiter’s perspective.

👉 Examples of questions you can ask:

• “How do I tailor my resume if I don't have local experience?”

• “What are the top 3 soft skills employers are currently looking for in the relevant industry?”

• “What’s the best way to follow up after an interview?”

• “Are references from overseas still valuable in Australia?”

No question is too small or too bold. This is your space to gain clarity, confidence, and direction — straight from the people who know the hiring process inside out.

Meet our recruiter for this month: Julia Thorpe.
