Apprentices & Trainees

Apprentice Testimonial
I’ve had a great experience with GetCareers during my industrial electrical apprenticeship. The support has been consistent and reliable, and Georgia, my field officer, has been especially helpful – always checking in and making sure I stay on track. Their guidance and pre-apprenticeship course has made a big difference in my training and confidence on the job.”

Apprentice Testimonial
I was warmly welcomed to GetCareers and given the right amount of information to understand who I’d be employed by and what I’d be doing throughout my plumbing apprenticeship, from first to fourth year. If I ever had any issues with my contract, I could always rely on the team at GetCareers for support. The service I’ve received from Trudy is greatly appreciated – everything I need is handled straight away.”

Apprentice Testimonial
I was shocked to receive a text from Trudy Robinson the day after New Year’s Day – at first, I thought it was spam! Surely no one would be looking for an apprentice straight after Christmas. But after meeting with Trudy, I quickly saw how committed and invested she was in helping me. She explained what GetCareers does and her role, and I knew I was in the right hands. Thanks to her perseverance, I signed my cabinet making apprenticeship contract in February. If you’d told me a year ago that I’d be working in a factory as an apprentice in Malaga, I would’ve said you were insane – but here I am, and I absolutely love getting up for work at 6am! In a male-dominated industry, I expected a few hiccups, but with Trudy’s ongoing support and mentoring, I’ve been able to work through any challenges. GetCareers and Trudy have changed my life, and I’m incredibly grateful for her commitment. I’ve already referred GetCareers to others and will continue to do so.”

GetCareers has given me the support I needed throughout my apprenticeship in order to become the apprentice I am today. They helped me find my feet and provided me with all the necessary training in order to improve my skills and grow my knowledge of the trade. I’m extremely grateful for their support.”

Apprentice Testimonial
Before connecting with GetCareers, I had a hard time finding an apprenticeship and a pretty tough experience with a previous employer who didn’t manage my pay or admin properly. Since joining GetCareers, everything has been smooth and well-organised. They take care of the paperwork, are easy to get in touch with, and I’ve felt genuinely supported throughout my apprenticeship.”

Employer Testimonial
GetCareers has provided valuable assistance to us with several apprentices over the years, significantly easing the burden associated with paperwork and coordinating TAFE units. Their support has been extremely beneficial. Given that the roofing industry currently faces a shortage of apprentices, the more apprentices we can attract and train through partnerships with organisations like GetCareers, the more we can ensure the ongoing quality of workmanship in our industry.”
Josh O'Brien, Roofing 2000Host Employer
Employer Testimonial
We have had numerous apprentices through GetCareers and have always found them to go above and beyond in supporting both the apprentice and the host employer. They take care of all the paperwork and organisation for the apprentice, allowing us to focus on teaching them on the job. We will continue to use GetCareers for future apprentices and highly recommend them to anyone looking to take one on.”
