About

Jessica enjoys working with businesses to support them with their administration and business support needs and gets a real kick out of every placement she fills.
Read my favourite placement story!
By far my favourite placement was a candidate who had fantastic overseas experience looking for his first break in Australia. I secured him a temporary contract at a national company where he was eventually offered a permanent position and then was promoted to Team Leader. He was so excited he got teary and told me I have changed the life of not only himself, but his entire family.
It was a very special moment.

Jessica was very easy to deal with. When She came to our workplace she was always polite and friendly.
She continuously kept us up to date with new candidates and then successfully placed 2 candidates with us who have fit in with our team perfectly. We couldn’t be happier with how they have turned out.
We will use her again in the future if required.

Jessica was very responsive, straight forward, and helpful throughout our communications and general interview.
Throughout this current opportunity search, Jessica stands out as one of the best I have encountered. It's the small, simple things like actually responding, being open to learning about my experience, and providing feedback that make a difference. My experience with Jessica and People2People would lead me to consider their opportunities above another.
I look forward to hearing what opportunities may be a good fit, and also learning more about potentially becoming a recruiter myself.
Thank you.

I did not have a interview, you use a system that was not Compatible with our computer network. I did not realise that software need to be downloaded and I need to ask permission for our company to download the software.
As the company I work with use zoom for all its meetings

Jessica Bales's Reply
Hi Ronald, typically Microsoft Teams does not need to be downloaded so that is an issue on your end I am unable to fix. Microsoft Teams is the only system we are able to use for interviews due to confidentiality not being secure using zoom, it is also the program most of our clients use for online interviews due to the same reasons so we would be unable to assist you in finding employment if you are unable to be interviewed online.

Hi Tony,
I am sorry you feel you had a negative experience. The role that you applied for was advertised as a temporary assignment.
During our initial conversation we discussed the 8 week assignment with a view of extension and potential permanency in which you agreed to schedule an interview with me.
It's the client's request that they meet potential candidates via zoom prior to offering them the role and it is my responsibility to fulfill the client's request.
I wish you the very best with your job search.
