Transport

Do you need a hand getting from home to work and are stuck for options? 

For Kiwi Staff employees, we offer rides to and from work if your regular form of transport falls through. However, these come at a small cost each way which is deductable from your wages. To arrange this you can give us a call on 0800 KSMAHI
(Available for Hamilton only)

We also encourage people to car pool with co-workers or friends who may work in the same area. Cheaper on gas and a mate to keep you company on the ride – win win!

Another option – public transport. If you aren’t familiar with your bus route and timetable, follow the link below.

First Impressions

Have you ever wanted to make a good first impression but aren’t sure how? Here are a few tips and tricks to make the first encounter with a potential employer that little bit easier.

Smile

The easiest tip of them all that adds the most value. Smiles attract smiles, it is a proven fact.

Dress to impress

Now this does not necessarily mean suit and tie, however dressing yourself up does showcase your intentions to impress. Whether you know it or not you are the face of a company, or atleast that’s how you could be portrayed by your customers or potential customers. This could be as simple as, clean shaven, show your face features with no hats or glasses (unless prescribed), brush up your favourite do, pull out that once a year get up.

Firm handshake

This is not gender specific either, a handshake can show your physicality if that is the role or your confidence. Shake with a firm grip. Do not be shy.

Do your homework

If its an organised interview. Research the company, gain some information you can highlight in the discussions. If you know the persons name, address them by their name constantly. It personalises the conversation. If you know any personal leads to do with your interviewer, even better. Do not be afraid to have a conversation that touches upon something that you may have in common. e.g sports, family, news….. not the weather lol

Be yourself, but be aware

Wow so this sounds quietly deceiving, well no. Be yourself to the core, but be vigilant in your surroundings especially your context in conversation. None to absolutely none swearing, profanity, be culturally and religiously aware. We are all different, even more so when we do not know eachother. So, respect the unkown.
