Student Success Stories
I am working 15 hours per week as a waitress in a restaurant earning $20 per hour. It took me two weeks to find this position after attending the Job Ready Program.
I started looking for a job when I commenced my studies at Shafston and found work three weeks later. I work 20 hours a week as a cleaner and earn $25 an hour.
The Barista Course at Shafston provided me with the necessary skills to prepare different sorts of beverages and how to deal properly with the expresso machine. After a few weeks, I could demonstrate my skills with confidence in an Italian Bistro and receive good feedback about my skills even though I had never worked before in this area. As a result, I was hired the same day.
The Job Ready Program at Shafston gave me the skills to prepare my Resume and practice interview techniques. I am earning $22 per hour and work as a cleaner for 20 hours a week.
Studying General English at Shafston has been an awesome experience. The teachers are super friendly and supportive and I have had the opportunity to make friends from diverse nationalities. Shafston campus is incredible as it has a beautiful view of the Brisbane River.
