What we do for jobseekers

If you're in the market for a new job or you’re ready for a career change, then we can't wait to assist you. 

However, it's important to note that we take your job search very seriously and will always promise the following:

Strict confidentiality – During the search process, your confidentiality is the utmost important thing to us. We'll never divulge any personal information to clients. 

Permission from you – We'll never send your resume to a client without your permission and won't carry out any reference checks with your current employer unless you've given us the green light to do so. 

Proper feedback – We all know how important feedback is, right? We'll always get that back to you as quickly as possible. 

The right role for you – Before we were recruiters, we wore those job seeking shoes too. So we know the importance of finding your dream role and we'll use our industry knowledge and recruitment expertise to help you do just that. Always.

What we do if you're hiring

We understand that recruitment is all about people, and we aim to match real estate and property organisations with the right talent. 

We also assist experienced professionals who are looking for new career opportunities. Here's our process:

We go to market – our finely tuned marketing and recruitment process ensures your job vacancy ends up in front of the right calibre of talent. 

We qualify – through a series of phone and face-to-face conversations, we narrow down potential talent to ensure we find you the right person for your business. 

We matchmake – this is where we introduce qualified candidates to you, the prospective employer. At this point in the search process, we discuss why each proposed candidate would be a great fit for your organisation. 

We can take care of the entire interview process – it's here we take a consultative approach and can assist with developing interview questions, coordinating feedback right through to overseeing the job offering and salary negotiating phase. 

We stay on track – throughout the process, we'll provide market feedback. If the salary, job description or skill expectations are impacting the recruitment process, then we'll reassess our strategy to ensure you get the best outcome. 

It's important to note that some roles will fill faster than others. However, it’s not a race. For that reason, we've always taken a quality over quantity approach when it comes to our recruitment process.

Carlie Barnett is the face and founder behind Recruit & Consult.

Carlie’s passion for real estate started from a young age when hired as a weekend receptionist at a Central Coast real estate office. Since then, she has worked in both residential real estate and project marketing, performing roles in administration, team management and business development. Carlie has worked with some of Australia’s most notable agencies including McGrath, Ray White, and LJ Hooker.

Carlie has over nine years of recruiting experience, recruiting for boutique start-up organisations right through to large-scale property institutions. It was a move to London that saw Carlie commence her recruitment career, working with one of the UK's largest names in recruitment, Reed. During her time there, she worked her way up through the ranks, earning the title of ‘Number One Consultant’. And, since then, has held both management and directors roles in the recruitment sector.

Carlie brings a unique and varied perspective to the recruitment industry having worked through varying business lifecycles and challenging economic environments including the Global Financial Crisis right through to the more recent Australian property boom.

It's this unique perspective combined with a wealth of industry experience that her business, Recruit & Consult, came to fruition and was launched in early 2019.

Allara South is the Candidate Manager at Recruit & Consult.

Allara began her real estate career while completing her year 12 certificate, where she worked on weekends as a front desk receptionist for a real estate agency on the Central Coast.

Once finishing her HSC, her love for property grew. She progressed into the rentals department as a Property Manager, where she spent three years of her time building solid relationships with her portfolio and learning everything about real estate.

Allara decided that she wanted to explore the world a little more, so she packed up her bags and moved to the UK. Moving to the UK is where she got the travel bug, and for six years, she worked within the travel industry and travelled the world.

Allara has since joined the Recruit and Consult team and brings over the experience and knowledge she has processed over the years. There are quite a few similarities between working in the travel industry and recruitment; think fast-paced environments, pinpoint accuracy, and the ability to build strong relationships with clients.

Allara has experience in matchmaking the perfect trip to their traveler, and she can transfer these skills to ensure that her candidates are cleverly matched with their dream career.
