Year 13

Official launch of UNO Jobs, Australia’s first ever jobs website purpose built for school leavers.

ATTN: Strictly embargoed until 9am, Thursday 20^th August.

UNO Jobs is officially here and ready to tackle Australia’s astonishingly high Youth Unemployment Rate of 14.2%. The brainchild of Year 13, an industry leader in education and post-school consultancy, UNO Jobs was created due to a constant demand from students and school leavers alike. Unlike any other Australian jobs websites, UNO Jobs allows potential employees to build a personal profile that matches them with jobs most suited to their skills and interests. With full support from Year 13, job seekers will no longer be rejected without an explanation, applicants will be able to receive feedback on how to increase their skillset as well as understand exactly what companies are looking for. Simply put, UNO Jobs is here to match the best candidates with their most suitable jobs, without any of the confusing processes and faceless applications.

The Australian job market is currently hindering the employment chances for many young Australians, as they find the barriers to entry are too high. Whether it’s a ‘lack of experience,’ constant rejection without explanation or just not enough know-how, many job seekers can’t seem to get their foot in the door. UNO Jobs is here to change that.

As a jobs website purpose built for young Australians, UNO Jobs is able to help any job seeker find a role that suits them. Created by Year 13, UNO Jobs has the perfect combination of youthful understanding, industry experience and a desire to solve a problem that has affected so many young Australians.

UNO Jobs operates quite differently to any other Australian jobs website. Much like a dating website, job seekers create an account, include as much information as possible such as education, experience and interests and are then matched with jobs near them. It’s a refreshing way for potential employees to see what is out in the market, without having to scroll through pages and pages of jobs that they may or may not be suited to.

UNO Jobs understands that many young Australians are not looking for full-time work or to work for a ‘big business.’ They also offer comprehensive job listings for casual and part-time work as well as apprenticeships and traineeships to ensure any potential job seeker can find their perfect match.

UNO Jobs also has staff on hand to help any potential job seekers with any enquiries. Sending out numerous resumes and job applications only to never hear anything back can be disheartening to young job seekers. A simple call or email to UNO jobs means someone can explain to you what employers are looking for, and how to increase your employability.

In summary, UNO Jobs was created to service a forgotten market; young Australians who don’t have their life planned out to perfection. Whether it’s the apprentice who doesn’t know any builders, the university student who needs to work to pay their way or someone who isn’t exactly sure what they want to do for the next forty years, UNO Jobs is here to help. This is a website that has been created by young Australians who understand those situations and have personally had to deal with them.

The Sydney based website launches this Thursday, August 20^th, and the team couldn’t be more excited to help as many young Australians find their perfect job. For more information, visit the website at unojobs.year13.com.au
