Im looking to jump back into the meatgrinder of late capitalism after a period of study. Does anyone have a group they would recommend (unlikey I know) or places to avoid?
Probably going to do some construction laboring first up, but looking to pick up some IT work hopefully.

Look to agencies that are registered labour hire providers under the new QLD govt laws. Weeds out the dodgy ones.
Avoid Workforce Solutions.
Good to know, thanks.
I can say toavoid jobs with words like Direct Marketing, Face to face Marketing. They're usually cold calling, door to door sales/Charity donation groups.
Hey not trying to be rude, just curious....why aren't you looking for work in your area of study? Isn't that largely the point of it?
Also try Workpac or Stellar if you want to try your hand at mining. Plenty of entry-level gigs available through them.
Oh I am, I signed up with a couple of places that do IT recruitment. Just that I'm probably going to pick up a some laboring work while the first IT gig comes down the pipeline.

Recommend or avoid?
Avoid backpacker jobs
Snog
Avoid any job agencys that are American like Max Employment. Go to Tursa or Sarina Russio.
Even australian ones are just in it for the money. I wouldn't waste time with them. They're all useless.
Cheers, I'll have a look at the last two.
I had to go to Tursa Caboolture for Centrelink (ended up being rejected for my claim). The person I saw asked me to send my resume to a specific email so they could correct it but I never heard from them.
