Do you have The Ultimate Job?

Mission Australia is thrilled to once again be the charity partner for Drake International's ‘The Ultimate Job’ competition.

Launched for the first time last year, the competition is based on real, permanent jobs submitted by employers, with the winning job in each capital city determined by a panel of judges and votes from the public.

Paul Bird, Mission Australia's State Director for Victoria has been selected to be on the expert panel of judges to decide which jobs will be shortlisted in Melbourne.

“I’m looking forward to helping out on the judging panel. It’s a fantastic campaign and a great opportunity for both employers and for job seekers out there,” said Mr Bird.

Melbourne job and candidate entries close on Wednesday 20 July, with entries in other states closing later in the year.

Throughout the competition, Drake International will raise awareness and funds for Mission Australia. The recruiter will donate 30 per cent of job placement fees and 100 per cent of the proceeds from the Gala awards event to Mission Australia – to help services like Charcoal Lane, which give young people the training and skills they need to find a successful pathway to employment.

Employment Awards
Mission Australia is also running its inaugural Employer Awards, which are open to all local employers of participating Mission Australia Employment Solutions sites who have used our services within the past 12 months.

Employers will be judged based on their contribution to helping unemployed people find work. Local presentations of 2011 awards will take place in October 2011. Local winners will qualify for entry into the national awards and will be invited to a national awards dinner that will be held in November 2011.
