Recruitment Stories

 


Charmaine Nicholson
Early Childhood Teacher,  Wellington

 

 


" I initially heard about Education Personnel through Whitireia Polytechnic who informed trainees that Education Personnel were running a seminar on CV writing and interview skills.  I attended the seminar, which was presented very well.  It was informative and all of our questions were answered.   I registered with Education Personnel for a variety of  reasons.  I have worked for an agency in the past and knew it was good way to get work.  I had also looked on the Education Personnel website and saw a job listed in Lower Hutt, which ideally was where I wanted to work.  My initial impressions of Education Personnel when contacting them were very good.  They were very friendly, approachable and down to earth.  Using the Education Personnel relief service is a really good way to get in the teaching field as they offer work all throughout Wellington.  Not long after the seminar Annalise put me forward for a permanent position in a kindergarten and I won it.  Even after the interview Annalise was in contact with me to check out how the interview went and she also did all the negotiating with the centre which was really good. The overall service was great.  I would definitely use Education Personnel again and I have recommended their service to other teachers.
