01

About Search Talents

What is Search Talents?

An Australian hiring platform that connects job seekers with employers, built for businesses that recruit without a dedicated HR team. Operated by IPS, ABN 21 662 655 665, from Geelong, Victoria.

Who is it for?

Job seekers, employers, recruitment agencies and career-guidance contributors.

Is it available across Australia?

Yes — jobs and hiring nationwide.

What does "Verified employer" mean?

Before an employer’s first job goes live, we check that the business has a valid ABN and confirm a working contact. It tells you the business is real and reachable. It is not a rating, and it is not a judgement about what they are like to work for.

02

For job seekers

Does it cost anything?

No. Searching, applying, career guidance and the tools are all free.

Do I need an account to browse?

No. You need one to apply.

How long until I hear back?

It depends on the employer, but every application on Search Talents has a visible status so you always know where it sits.

Can I control who sees my profile?

Yes. You choose whether employers can find you, or whether you appear only when you apply.

Can I update my profile any time?

Yes. Keeping it current improves how well roles match you.

Is there an app?

Yes — on Google Play and the App Store. Job alerts, one-tap apply, and your profile in your pocket.

03

For employers

What does it cost?

Your first job ad is free. Every job after that is $199. No subscription, no lock-in, no percentage of salary.

Is $199 GST inclusive?

$199 is plus GST. Australian businesses registered for GST can claim it back.

Do you decide who I hire?

No. Search Talents organises applications against the brief you write. No candidate is ever screened out by software alone, and every interview, check and offer stays with your team.

What is the shortlist console?

You choose how many candidates you want to review — five, eight or ten — and we organise the pipeline down to that number.

Do I need a card to post the free job?

No.

04

For recruitment partners

How do I get access?

Email hello@searchtalents.co. Setup depends on how your desk runs, so we do it with you rather than off a price list.

Will you contact our candidates?

No. We do not contact, market to, or surface your candidates to anyone else. They stay visible against your role, to your consultants.

What do you need from us before we upload anything?

Confirmation that you have the appropriate authority and consent, and a live role to tie the purpose to.
