Question 1

Do you charge fees for providing a paid international job placement?

Accepted Answer

No, we do not charge any employment-related or recruitment fees to participants. But we do charge our employers a consultation fee when someone has successfully commneced employment.

Question 2

Do you charge a fee for your Pathway Training programs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All of our pricing is clearly indicated on the website. Please visit our Pathways page.

Question 3

Are you a registered training organisation or an affiliated academic institution?

Accepted Answer

No. Jobready today is not associated or affiliated with any other school, college, university or other academic entity. We have created our unique Pathway training programs based on experience and a strong interest from people wanting this type of service. Our Pathways are life-related, practical and designed for your progression towards bigger and brighter career development.

Question 4

How long does the pathway training take?

Accepted Answer

Depending on what pathway you select, training generally takes between 4-8 months. You are able to do most of the training at your own pace and can do this without quitting your current employment as it is delivered online. However, you will need to participate in a minimum of 10 classroom sessions and if you elect to register for  an international job placement, you will need to attend practical vocational training as well for approximately 7 days

Question 5

Can I just register to do the paid international job placement?

Accepted Answer

Yes.
But we recommend undertaking the Pathway of Life Education in order to be successful - our employers will prefer people who have done the training and you will be much better prepared to live and work in a country like Canada if you do all the Modules first.
However, if you can meet all the requirements of the employer and other criteria for immigration selection, then we are happy to refer you to our employers without having to undertake any Pathway training.

Question 6

Am I eligible for doing the Pathway training?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Anyone who lives in Thailand, Vietnam or Cambodia and wants to undertake our Pathway(s) is eligible. Our training is competency based - so even if there are some areas that you struggle with, we will help and support you so that you can complete all the Modules.

Question 7

Can I change my job when I go another country?

Accepted Answer

Yes - but you would need to follow all the applicable conditions that would apply under the law and legislation of the country where you are wanting to work. Basically, you would need to complete the entire Work Permit and/or Visa process again.

Question 8

What if I change my mind after registering for Pathway training? Can I get a refund?

Accepted Answer

You can cancel your pathway training within the first 14 days of registration and you will be given a full refund of the training fee.

Question 9

Is jobready today able to represent me for immigration matters?

Accepted Answer

No. We are not legally able to represent you or act on your behalf regarding any part of the applicable immigration process. However, part of our training is to better prepare you for applying for a Work Permit and/or Visa.

Question 10

What do I need to have in order to apply for a Work Permit or Visa for my job placement?

Accepted Answer

We need to make sure we are able to refer you confidently to an employer regarding the probability of you being issued with a valid Work Permit and/or Visa. Therefore, applicants will need all of the following:
 
Passport with 2 years validity
National ID Card or certificate
Household Registration
Marriage Certificate (where applicable) 
Education Certificates
Birth Certificates (of any children you have)
Work references
Police Clearance Certificate
Health Check
Biometrics data
CV or Resume
No previous immigration offences
Evidence to support your return to your home country after your job placement finishes.
 
Jobready today has no control over the decisions made by Canadian, Irish or other immigration departments but will help you with information that will increase your chances of being issued positive documentation for travel to your hosted job placement country.

Question 11

Am I able to stay in the country where I will be working after my Work Contracts finishes?

Accepted Answer

NO. It would be an offense for you to stay unless your Visa permitted you to do so. So we advise you to return to your home country as per Immigration Law. We also advise strongly that you do not breach any conditions of your Visa (e.g. running away) as this will ultimately get you into serious trouble with the local authorities of the country you are working (including the police/possible detention) and it will make it very difficult for you to successfully apply for Visas for other countries in the future.

Question 12

Can I choose what type of work I want to do in another country?

Accepted Answer

Yes, of course. We will present you with different types of jobs and you may choose a job that you think you would enjoy and be good at.

Question 13

Will I be able to have a preference for a particular country to work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. However, we would prefer you to be open to any country that we may have an opportunity in because you may need to wait longer if we offer you a job in a certain country and you refuse.

Question 14

When will I know if I have been offered an international job placement?

Accepted Answer

Some employers will want to receive your application and even interview you, either individually or as part of a group, but in most cases, employers will accept the people referred by jobready today without going through this process. We will notify you very quickly as to whether an employer has accepted you as a new employee or not (subject to Immigration and other Government approvals).
