Homestay Direct Pty Ltd incorporating Student Services Direct was incepted in May 2006 with a handful of international students seeking homestay placements with Melbourne families. Only 2.5 years later the business boasts over 1500 students currently residing in quality, secure, nurturing homestay placements all over Australia!
Some time ago the business diversified to provide value add services including "comprehensive study tours" and "western world internship" opportunities for overseas students seeking to build their life skills, develop their English and embark on valuable work place experiences either as a prerequisite to their University studies or to provide them with an edge when embarking on employment in their professional careers.
With increasing demand and our passion to assist candidates realize their dreams, more recently the business has expanded to include a suite of "coaching & career facilitation" programs for qualified candidates LOCALLY, who are finding it difficult to secure jobs in their field or a job at all! We provide every candidate with a personalized, unique and comprehensive service to assist facilitate that "lucky break" to present a potential employer with all they have to offer for a win win outcome! Only yesterday, Rizwan (a 31yo Graduate Accountant) who had lost faith after 12 months of unsuccessful job seeking, with our assistance, secured his first job. He was overwhelmed with excitement and rang me several times to confirm it was true!
We thoroughly enjoy partnering people, initiating and fostering global relationships. Our numerous success stories are immensely gratifying.
