Question 1

How is Gippslander different from Seek or Indeed?

Accepted Answer

Gippslander is 100% focused on the Gippsland region. We don't list Melbourne jobs, and we don't bury your ad behind hundreds of sponsored results. Every listing gets promoted across our local channels — including job expos, community partners, and email alerts to over 2,000 local job seekers. You're also dealing directly with a local person (Kane), not a call centre.

Question 2

How many people will see my job ad?

Accepted Answer

We have over 3,000 registered job seekers across Gippsland, and your listing is also distributed to job aggregators like Jora and Careerjet which reach thousands more. Featured listings are also promoted on our social media channels. The exact reach depends on the role and location, but your ad won't just sit on a page — we actively push it out.

Question 3

Do I need to create an account to post a job?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it only takes a minute. You'll create a free employer profile which lets you manage your listings, receive applications, and message candidates. Once you're set up, posting a job is quick and simple.

Question 4

Can I edit my job ad after posting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can log in and update your listing at any time while it's live. If you need a hand, just reach out and Kane can make the changes for you.

Question 5

What happens when my listing expires?

Accepted Answer

Your job ad is automatically removed from the website and search results. If you still need to fill the role, you can repost your listing. We'll send you an email when it expires so you're not caught off guard.

Question 6

What's the difference between Standard and Featured?

Accepted Answer

Both include 30+ days live and email alerts to local job seekers. Featured adds extra visibility — your ad is highlighted, pinned to the top of search for 14 days, promoted on social media, and you can message job seekers directly. Featured is ideal when you need to fill a role quickly or want maximum reach.

Question 7

Are prices inclusive of GST?

Accepted Answer

No. All listed prices are exclusive of GST. GST will be added at checkout.

Question 8

Do I get my own employer profile page?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every employer gets a free profile page on Gippslander where job seekers can learn about your business and see all your current openings in one place.

Question 9

How quickly does my job ad go live?

Accepted Answer

Your listing goes live as soon as you complete payment. It'll appear on the website immediately and be included in the next round of email alerts to local job seekers.

Question 10

What areas does Gippslander cover?

Accepted Answer

We cover all of Gippsland — from Warragul and Drouin in the west through to Bairnsdale and Lakes Entrance in the east. That includes Baw Baw, South Gippsland, Bass Coast, Latrobe City, Wellington, and East Gippsland shires.
