Employers in Perth have taken on 19 job seekers so far following APM's Jump Start event earlier this month.

As part of the event APM launched a campaign to find employment for 160 local job seekers.
By hiring staff through APM, local businesses are able to benefit from a no cost tailored recruitment service that matches job seekers to their particular job requirements.
Employers gain access to wage subsidies of up to $10,000 when hiring job seekers through APM.
