Re: Staff required
@zuku , may I borrow that first paragraph?!
Need to include it our next intern/junior position perhaps. The two we took on this year...shall I say, if I had it only the application, would not have lasted past their third month.

Re: Staff required
In Aus, just rocking up for work would make you no.1 on the list.

Re: Staff required
At the risk of hijacking the thread further...
I probably understated it. When we first arrived here 11 years ago and I was job searching, whenever I asked a prospective employer what the most important thing to them was other than being able to do the job in question they would reply that being reliable and showing up was more important than any skill, qualification etc. And this from many different employers.
Since then I have discovered for myself how difficult it is when managing small construction projects, to get people to actually arrive on site when they should, or even when they have said they would. When someone does arrive timeously, I am surprised as it is rare.Last edited by nkosi; 19-12-2018 at 16:29. Reason: Grammar
