Career Driven is a specialist staffing agency in Australia connecting professionals with opportunities in Business Services and Automotive sectors. They excel at matching mid-to-senior level talent, offering candidates a focused, strategic approach to advancing their careers.

Who pays Career Driven

Paid by the employer, not by you.

Career Driven earns a fee from the company that hires you, usually a share of your first-year salary or a margin on your contract rate. Their client is that company.

What that means for you

Expect roles that fit their open vacancies before roles that fit your plan. Ask which company a role is for before your CV goes anywhere, and apply direct where you can.

Their side

What kind of roles and industries does Career Driven focus on?

Career Driven concentrates its efforts on the Business Services and Automotive industries within Australia. They primarily place mid-to-senior level professionals across a range of functions, including management, operations, sales, and specialized technical roles within these sectors. Their expertise lies in understanding the nuances of these industries to connect candidates with relevant and impactful career opportunities.

Where you meet

How does Career Driven's recruitment process work for candidates?

Your journey begins with submitting your CV, after which a Career Driven consultant will review your profile against current openings. If there's a potential match, they will contact you for an initial discussion to understand your career aspirations and experience in detail. Successful candidates will then be presented to their clients, with Career Driven managing the interview process and providing feedback throughout.

What should I expect once Career Driven is working with me?

Career Driven aims to maintain clear communication throughout the recruitment process, providing updates on your application status and feedback from interviews. They typically work on an exclusive basis with clients, meaning they may ask for your commitment to their search. As a staffing agency, their clients are the hiring companies, so candidates do not pay a fee.

Your side

How can I get noticed by Career Driven?

To increase your visibility with Career Driven, ensure your CV is up-to-date and clearly highlights experience within the Business Services or Automotive sectors. Using relevant keywords related to your expertise and the roles they recruit for can improve searchability. Referrals from trusted contacts who have previously worked with the agency are also highly valued and can expedite the process.

Is Career Driven the right agency for my job search?

Career Driven is an excellent choice if you are a mid-to-senior level professional seeking roles within Australia's Business Services or Automotive industries. Candidates looking for roles outside these sectors or at junior levels may find other agencies better suited to their needs. If you value a targeted approach from a specialist recruiter, Career Driven can offer significant value.

  • Use industry-specific keywords in your resume and LinkedIn profile.
  • If referred, mention your referrer's name in your initial contact.

Frequently asked questions

Who pays Career Driven's fee?

As a staffing agency, Career Driven's fees are paid by the hiring companies, not by the candidates. You will never be asked to pay for their services.

Can I register with multiple recruitment agencies?

Yes, candidates are generally encouraged to work with multiple agencies to broaden their search. However, it's good practice to inform each agency if you are also working with others, especially if you secure a role through one of them.

What happens to my CV and data after I submit it?

Career Driven will store your CV and personal data securely. They will only share your information with potential employers after obtaining your explicit consent for specific roles.

Should I apply directly to jobs if I see them advertised?

If Career Driven is actively representing you for a role, it's best to channel your application through them to ensure consistent communication and representation. Applying directly might complicate the process.

Applying through Career Driven?

Track the role, tailor your CV to the real employer, and prep for the interview with JobMentis.
