Passive Job Hunting

Following a particularly tough year in 2009, it is predicted we will see a significant increase in the number of employed people changing jobs as their confidence grows. Many candidates in the market will be ‘passive job seekers’ – those in jobs quietly looking out for a new opportunity.

So where should the elusive passive job seeker spend their web browsing time?

Often they won’t check job boards, but they tend to visit websites that regularly provided interesting stories and research. This increases the likelihood that they may even look into opportunities they may not have considered.

Websites such as Hostec’s provide great content and people, just like you, come to read a story, and jobs are only a click away. The passive job seeker can learn about opportunities and submit applications discreetly. It allows candidates to register and receive confidential job alerts that inform them when a job matches their career goals. You can fly under the radar whilst bettering your career prospects.

Are you an elusive passive job seeker? Are you looking for a role in Hospitality, Tourism & Leisure? Register today.

Competition was fierce on the night with a total of 40 awards to be handed out to the ‘bests of the bests’ of this year.  Our very own Mr. Morley was up on stage presenting the Human Resources Department Member of the Year, sponsored by Hostec, to Jayne Webb of the Brisbane Marriott in Queensland.  We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Crowne Plaza of IHG for winning the Hotel Brand of the Year, Mirvac Hotels & Resorts for Accommodation Chain of the Year, and last but not least Mr. Simon McGrath of Accor Hospitality for the HM Magazine ‘Hotelier of the Year’.

We would also like to say a big thanks to our Academy students and compliment them on the fantastic job they have done on Friday night.  Dressed to kill in outfits supplied by leading design house ‘Farage’ for the guys and ‘Fluerwood’ for the gals and with their hair dressed by Venus Hairdressing College, they were on hand to assist with cocktail service, and provided guidance to award recipients leading them onto the stage and to the photo area after.  Well done to all!!

In addition, a special thanks to Jessica and Tina of the Academy for their weeks of planning and organising to make the night a very special one for our students.
