"Most of our applicants came through SEEK. Once we’ve flooded SEEK for a couple of months, we’re getting the same applicants over and over, or we’re getting less qualified, or they’re just not the right fit for our company.”
“But we don’t know what we don’t know. Whether it’s personal or job related, you have to tell us. If you don’t tell us, we can’t do anything. We can’t work to better you or better the system.”
“After I originally met with Ben and key members of the team, the rapport, trust and purpose identified played a big factor. No other system was shortlisted; they didn’t meet our criteria which broadly included connectivity, convenience, compliance, ease of use, innovation and price.”
“I came on board when Vikings had already purchased Employment Hero – I was really lucky. I had used and implemented the platform at my last company, so I’ve used it for the last 3 years. It was easy for me to pick up.”
“To be able to send offers and contracts using the software is great, and so is being notified when contracts are signed so we can start the onboarding process. The compliance is so much tighter than it ever has been before. We have registration, sales certificates all on file; Employment Hero keeps prompting new hires to upload their certifications, instead of making us the annoying hiring managers to bug them. The ability to set up tasks for each individual in the business relevant to their role is great too; we can see exactly where things are and what still needs to be done.”
“Our team is demographically and geographically diverse, with a strong mix of full and part-time workers. We already had a culture of working remotely, from home or client sites; we even have a team member based in Scotland.”
“It’s important not to underestimate that. To look out for each other and try to make everyone the best version of themselves. That’s important to us.”
“Our internal values are at the core of every decision and our people are listened to, respected and supported in their growth and development.”
“At my old practice, I had come across Employment Hero and was trying to work out how to implement it there.”
“New starters go through all policies and procedures, acknowledge them, fill in all the paperwork, sign everything, and review the organisation chart – all before they start.”
“But the more I looked into it, the more I realised that there was so much more available. We didn’t even have contracts in there; we were still generating them in Word, then converting them into PDF, then uploading them to Employment Hero.”
“Ben has been my rock. He’s helped me so much and has been amazing to help me understand how to set up some key functions.”
“The childcare industry has always been an industry of folders and paperwork. Prior to Employment Hero, Everlearn was no exception and ensuring regulatory compliance has always been a very time consuming and arduous task.”
“Employment Hero looked very user-friendly and had a lot of the features I was looking for. I also really liked that the employees could do it all themselves and also manage their own bank and super details, as well as have visibility over their leave requests and contracts.”
“We had no way of tracking leave other than writing it down, so we didn’t know who was taking leave when. Onboarding and policies were all on paper and not necessarily stored in the same place, either. As a growing business, we needed more structure.”
