Testimonial "Head Start Pro gave me a priceless opportunity to get involved in real working world. I was placed in CPA Australia initially for about 3 months, where I had the chance to not only learn but also contribute. I developed confidence in communicating with others and the experience has given me a kick-start in the Australian workforce. I am now employed permanently on a Part time basis with CPA Australia."

Testimonial "Joblinx has offered me so many opportunities that I would never have gotten at any other University. Joblinx has worked hard to accommodate for me as a student, and I have been so fortunate to gain a position through Head Start Pro with the Cherie Blair foundation in London. It is a great honour and an experience of a lifetime. I have found the experience to be extremely valuable and challenging, allowing me to use the skills and knowledge acquired from my time at JCUB Brisbane. There is no doubt that I will walk away from the experience as a more confident person thanks to all the opportunities and challenges that Joblinx has given me as a student. They recognise the importance of giving the students a chance to get ready for the real world."
