How the System Works

How the System Works
Purpose of the System
The Support Worker Register has been setup as an introduction service to allow Individuals or Agencies requiring Support Workers to recruit appropriate personnel.
 
Users of the System

There are two types of Users of the Support Worker Register;

  • Job Seekers - Individuals available to perform Support Worker roles.
  • Employers - Individuals or Agencies looking to fill Support Worker vacancies.
 
Job Seekers

Job Seekers may register with the System by creating a Job Seeker Account. When they create an account, Job Seekers provide the System with information about themselves such as the days and locations that they are available to work, their linguistic background, the types of work they perform, their areas of expertise and their licenses and certificates.

The System uses this information to match Employer requests with individual Job Seekers. Additionally, Job Seekers provide a resume containing private information about their contact details and work history.

Information in the resume is not released to prospective Employers until each prospective Employer has been individually approved by the Job Seeker.

Job Seeker accounts must be approved by Administration before their details appear on the System.

Employers

Employers may register with the System by creating an Employer Account. When they create an account, Employer provide the System with information about themselves used to authenticate their identity and information about their specific needs.

Employers may Search for Job Seekers by specifying the days and locations that assistance is required, their linguistic background, the types of work to be performed and the licenses and certificates required.

Employers may view the Public information about each of the matching Job Seekers. They may then choose to contact the Job Seekers through the System to request access to their resumes. Once access has been approved, Employers may view the resumes and make decions on which Job Seekers to
invite to an interview. Employers may then contact Job Seekers via the contact information contained in the Job Seekers' resumes.

While it is possible for Employers to Search the System without creating an account, they must register with the System and have their account approved by Administration before they can request access to Job Seekers' resumes.
