I can't believe that entry level operators in the Kimberly have to advertise now. Times are changing!
Regarding Qantaslink's new minimums, surely the 10k fee won't cover the increased training costs of trying to get 700hr guys up to speed. I wonder how long it will take the bean counters to realise that it would be cheaper to offer a 10k increase in salary, drop the fee and attract a more suitably qualified/experienced candidate.
It will happen eventually. Unfortunately it will be a reactive measure after the horses have bolted - and there are going to be a lot of nice paddocks to roam around in the future.
The QL ad should read 'candidates for the
formerly sought after positions' yada yada yada.............ps.don't forget your 10 grand, y12 certificate and your pencils.
