'Alyeesha was her last harvest for about eight weeks from November to Jan. Harvest 8 weeks. She was working at one of our sites handling grain, operating storages, unloading road trucks, weigh bridging and sampling. She was working at heights and was fine with that. Her punctuality was awesome, she didn’t mind getting into it and would always be asking if there is anything she could do. Her communication we had no problems with, we all use radios and she was always loud and clear and followed procedure. She’s a great girl, I hope she comes back again! '

'Thomas is my son, he has been working for me for years. At the moment, he is in charge of a harvest crew of usually 2-3 others. We have two places, one at Yarrawonga & one at Condo so he has a fair bit of responsibility. He manages workers really well, great communication and delegation skills. He is a confident and reliable operator, has a fair bit of experience on machines now. He works long hours, and has solid work ethic. '

'Good worker needs a little management in some skills but only needs to be show once'

'Brooke helped me out on and off about two years ago. We have a horse adjustment business in the northern suburbs of Perth in WA. General animal care and hygiene and property maintenance were here main duties. She also had to deal with a lot of our clients, who need a lot of reassurance surrounding the care of their animals. Considering her age at the time, she was great, most her age are awful. Brooke has a brain, she is a good worker, she gets in and gets the job done. I would ask her to do something and I knew I didn’t have to worry, it would be done well, she understood the importance of doing a job once and well. She is sharp, quite shy which made it a bit difficult to have a conversation at the beginning but she definitely got better with time. She is at the high end of good workers. I would have no dramas in recommending her, she definitely has a brain. You could put her anywhere, she would cope with remote work, she really isn’t afraid of getting her hands dirty. '

'Annaleise worked on our property during September 2016. Her work ethic is outstanding; she is enthusiastic, conscientious and is not daunted by any task despite her slight stature. While on our property, Annaleise took part in the following activities: harrowing, spreading fertiliser, laying water pipe and connecting stock water, halter training cattle for shows, drenching and vaccinating cattle and sheep and, managing chickens in addition to general farm duties. Once confident in a task, Annaleise can be relied on to complete work in a timely manner with minimal supervision. Annaleise lived in our house and we found her a congenial housemate; helpful and unobtrusive. She is neat and willingly shares household tasks.'

'Quentin worked for us doing general farmwork on our mango farm. He did mostly physical work laying plastic, rolling plastic etc. By the end of his time he had started doing a bit of tractor work. I would say he knows how to drive a tractor but wouldn't have known how to operatoe GPS etc when he left us. Although he would probably pick it up pretty quickly. He got along with people and never caused any problems. If he liked the job he was doing he was really good. Sometimes he could be up and down though so if he didn't like the work he was doing he could be a bit slack. It would take him a bit to get going. He is travelling with his girlfriend Amelie who is very good and a real goer. As a couple I would give them 4/5 stars because she has strengths and he has strengths. I would employ them again.'
