FAQs

A traditional childcare recruitment agency provides recruitment, screening and placement services for childcare providers. But we’re not your average childcare recruitment agency. Think of Talent Now almost like a recruitment dating app or your recruitment wingman. We’re all about connecting childcare centres with perfect educators.

We’re all about choice and simplicity! Centres post jobs for a flat booking fee and then pay the educators that take the job. Prefer we pay the educators? Too easy. We do that as well.

And childhood educators? They just create a profile, submit it for review, and once approved they can get jobs instantly.

Simply download our app or centres can sign up via our online platform. Once you create your profile, you’re good to go. Post, find and accept jobs whenever you want!
