Pros & Cons

  • It is wonderful to be a part of such a supportive team with a great culture of positivity and learning. There is plenty of flexibility within the role. Great perks such as wellbeing days and ongoing professional development.
  • The family culture, the emphasis on work life balance, the level of mentoring provided, and the willingness to take on feedback and learn from it.
  • I would have to say the flexible working times. You have control over your own calendar so you can organise appointments and admin time when its best works for you. There is also new graduate mentoring. This is a time each week where you can ask questions about your specific caseload and seek advice on strategies to use.
  • Great support network (including team leaders, Everyday Mentoring). Flexible timetable and option to work from home.
  • The number of changes that happen in one period can sometimes be overwhelming, but I think this is all part of being a progressive company, and often the change is a result of employee feedback being acted on.
  • The learning curve is steep but if you throw yourself into the situation and ask people for help, I always felt well supported.
  • The company is quite large so it can be difficult to navigate at times in terms of who is the right point of contact. That being said, everyone is approachable and willing to point you in the right direction.

There is always space for growth at EI. It’s been 6 months and already I am starting to run a group. Didn't think I would do that if you asked me this last year.

Each day looks different. It may start with admin in the morning which may include session preparation, assessment scoring, replying to emails or report writing. Then going out to see 2-3 participants, either at their home or at a place in the community.

Awesome team leaders and area leads. They always are open to talking to and even sending checking emails. Our meetings even included time to catch up with the team and see how we are feeling both work-wise or personal.

The office is great and open plan so you can always talk to your coworkers. There are rooms that can be booked for quiet time. Great food in the office at all times.

Recruitment
Quickest and easiest process. Received a phone call to offer interview times that were very flexible. Went through the first interview and were asked some interesting questions that weren't the same as other jobs. The interviewer had such a calm aura that my usual anxious mind didn't feel like it was spiralling.

Salary
I'm really satisfied. It is better than I expected as a new graduate and we also get a company car, which is fully serviced and maintained, including fuel and tolls. There are also bonuses paid or a day off if we go over our client-facing targets.

I feel that I have learnt my whole degree and more at EI. the Off to flying start program had really let us hit the ground running and even then, it's being modified to our feedback.
