The Problem

Most job seekers aren't failing because they lack ability. They're failing because they're not telling their story clearly enough.

What gets ignored

  • Generic templates that say nothing specific
  • Experience buried too far down the page
  • Missing the language recruiters scan for
  • No clear evidence of capability or readiness
  • A profile that doesn't match your resume

What gets attention

  • Clear, specific, evidence-based experience
  • Mining language recruiters recognise instantly
  • Tickets, machinery and site experience listed properly
  • Achievements that prove capability
  • A consistent professional brand across paper and online

Martyn Hill speaking at the RCSA Industry Awards
Why work with me

I know how decisions are made because I've been the person making them.

For 15 years, I've sat on the other side of the hiring table — screening CVs, interviewing thousands, partnering with hiring managers, and placing talent across Australia's mining industry.

My work spans frontline blue-collar operations through to complex technical and leadership hiring. I've sourced talent for some of the biggest mining operations in Australia and partnered directly with hiring managers across multiple commodities.

This isn't generic advice or one-size-fits-all templates. It's targeted guidance from someone who has recruited for every major commodity, every roster, and every level of mining operations.
