13/05/08 Invitations galore! Hey thanks to everyone who has been inviting contractor colleagues to join getstaffed. The revolution is gaining momentum. We are having a problem or two with invitations to people with gen-i.co.nz email addresses. Gen-i's spam filter bounces your invitation back to our server and your colleague doesn't receive the email. Perhaps you could just email Gen-i folks directly... and we'll try [again!] to get the blocking issue sorted.

22/04/08 Keen for a change? getstaffed will soon allow you to indicate if you're interested in receiving permanent job offers... whatever permanent is!Perhaps you feel like a change, perhaps you like the role offered, perhaps GST and FTB are driving you crazy. Whatever.And what really kicks is that we'll give you 1000 getstaffed points if you accept a permanent job offer via getstaffed. No jokes, no Nigerian relatives. Just 1000 sweet points to donate to Mary Potter Hospice, convert to AirNZ Airpoints or save for a rainy day. And we'll give you complete control over your profile and make it easy for you to secure future roles that suit you best. So tell your permie mates to join the recruitment revolution! |
