Why TQN Personnel
In a regional city, the best candidates are often already employed and not scrolling job boards. We find them by searching beyond active applicants, then screen properly: a structured interview, phone references, VEVO and police checks, and licence or registration checks where the role needs them. You get a few strong options rather than a long list, and permanent hires come with our 90-day free re-placement guarantee.

source ↗Recruitment licensing & compliance
Two sets of rules apply depending on how you hire. Permanent recruitment generally sits outside Victoria's labour hire scheme, according to Labour Hire Authority guidance. Temps and contractors who remain our employees are labour hire, so the provider must hold a licence from the Labour Hire Authority and hosts must only use licensed providers. TQN Personnel holds a Victorian labour hire licence and gives you the number when we are engaged.
FAQs
How do I sign up with a job agency in Bendigo?
Upload a CV on our contact page with a note on the work you are after and whether you drive. After a short phone screen, and once your referees and right to work are confirmed, you will be considered for every Bendigo role that suits.
Do you recruit aged care staff in Bendigo?
Yes, from personal care workers to clinical leads. Under the worker screening rules that came with the new Aged Care Act, each worker must hold either an NDIS Worker Screening Clearance or a recent police certificate; we sight the document, record its expiry and check AHPRA for nurses.
Can recruitment agencies in Bendigo find staff for Marong or Heathcote?
We can. We recruit for sites across Greater Bendigo, including Marong, Eaglehawk, Heathcote and Goornong, and factor travel into the shortlist so candidates can genuinely get there.
How fast can job agencies in Bendigo fill a vacancy?
Expect a shortlist inside 7 days once the brief is locked in. Where a vacancy cannot wait, we can bridge it with a temp or contractor while the permanent search runs.
Do Bendigo employment agencies guarantee their placements?
We do. If a permanent placement leaves or underperforms within 90 days, we run the search again and place a replacement at no extra fee.
