Founded in 2010 Techs On the Move is a company that assists experienced automotive tradespersons who wish to build a new life in Australia by helping them find jobs. They provide seamless solutions to skilled tradespersons who are working within the automotive, transport and agricultural industries.

 

The main objective of Techs On The Move is finding highly-experienced automotive tradespeople who have been trained at the highest level in other international markets. Aiming to meet and actively working to combat Australia’s skills shortages, they focus on assisting motivated individuals who are keen to experience working in Australia. This service is not available to local people.

 

Techs On The Move’s approach differs from regular conventional recruiters. They provide a highly personalised service to help the potential candidate make the decision and handle the perceived complexities of emigrating abroad. They are consultants or partners who work with the candidates by simplifying the process so that potential pitfalls are avoided.

 

The step-by-step process adopted by Techs On The Move includes initial consultation and information packs, screening and interviewing, reference checks, skills testing, family support for successful candidates, the ‘get ready’ checklist and handholding post arrival.

 

Techs On The Move screens potential candidates with great care. Delving into the depth of their experience in both the British and Australian Motor Industries, candidates are interviewed online on Skype and a link to the interview is forwarded to the prospective employer for review. Psychometric behavioral profiling is also conducted whenever the employer requests it.

 

After the candidate signs the contract, reference checks are completed and visas are approved. Each candidate is then given a checklist that highlights the necessary steps to ensure that their move to Australia is as smooth as possible, both before departing from their home country and upon arrival in Australia.

 

Prospective candidates can avail of the support and help provided by Techs On The Move by submitting a general application online.
