Joes an awesome recruiter, committed to finding work, safe worksites, joes responsive to messages and requests, super friendly guy. Professional. I’d recommend this agency. They’ve found me consistent work, which isn’t always common in this industry.

I’m casual work for Fast Labour (Melbourne), I can tell you they are the best company to work for. Previously I worked for JV Labour hire and they were terrible! Professional, good pay, and plenty of work available. James was my recruiter and he is fantastic guy, easy to talk to and listens to any issues on site or jobs. In the office the Fast Labour recruiters all worked in the trades before so they understand problems that can occur on the sites and resolve any issues quickly. I highly recommend Fast Labour to any other hire co. Ps they also takes tradies too not just laborers.

FastLabourHire? More like JoblessHire. They don’t know the first thing about actually hiring or treating workers with respect. My experience with them was a complete nightmare. They offer you work, then drop you without warning, leaving you in the dust. They’re all about squeezing out profits, not giving a damn about the people who actually do the work.They couldn’t care less about your needs. I told them I didn’t have a car, but they still sent me miles away. Got sick? Too bad for you. Need something? Good luck hearing back. But when they need something from you? Suddenly, they’re texting nonstop.They promised me a closer job, then sent me over 3 hours away in scorching heat. They’ll lie to get you in, then treat you like trash.And those glowing online reviews? Total BS. They pressure workers into leaving positive feedback, but the second you need them? They disappear faster than you can blink.Labour hire workers are just looking for steady work, and FastLabourHire more like JoblessHire—exploits that desperation. You’re just another disposable body to them. I felt completely used and disrespected. Do yourself a favor and stay as far away from them as possible.

In the beginning I had a bad experience with them and some of my pay was delayed for weeks. They did take the criticism serious though and asked for a second chance/opportunity to show that this is not the usual case.They handled the criticism very well and were professional about it.Since the problems in the beginning everything went smoothly and I can recommend Fast Labour hire if you are looking to find work fast.It might not be ideal as a long term solution, but most of the time they are able to get you full work weeks.

As a casual employee at Fast Labour Hire, I have had positive experiences working as a carpenter. Lewis, the recruiter, consistently ensures I have steady work opportunities and prioritizes my safety. As an emerging professional, I am highly satisfied with my experience at this company.

Having worked as a traffic controller at Fast Labour Hire for several years, I would have no hesitation in recommending them as good place of employment for any traffic controller seeking work experience.My interactions with Joe Parker have always been clear and transparent in placing me with the many different traffic control and construction companies I have been hired out to.Martin Mulvany.
