Stride — Work experience for Victorian students

Apply

Nervous? Totally normal. This isn’t a job interview. It’s a hello. They already know you’re a student with no experience. That’s who they asked for.

Say hi (a sentence or two, or skip it)

What happens next: this note travels with your Stride card: first name, year level, suburb, what you’re into. That IS the application; there’s nothing to attach. You’ll see when they’ve read it, and they can only reply through Stride.

Post a placement

A clear, specific description attracts suitable applicants.

Role title Suburb Type Who can see this (tick every year level you’d take)

Year 10 Year 11 Year 12

Pay (e.g. $24.10/hr, or Unpaid · 1 week) What will the student do?

Our rules for the first meeting: at your verified workplace, during business hours, with the named supervisor present. Students are told to expect this. Video call first is encouraged.

Boost

Small, optional, seven days, and one per placement, ever, so pick the week that matters. Students always see the “Boosted” label; we don’t hide it.

A single one-off charge. No subscription and nothing recurring.

Warning: read before continuing

Are you certain this is lawful and true?

You are creating an employer account on a platform used by school-age children. By continuing you confirm that:

The business, ABN and address you entered are true and current, and you are authorised to act for that business.
Every placement you offer will be lawful, including pay, hours, supervision, safety, and any child-employment or work-experience requirements that apply in Victoria.
You will only contact students through Stride, and only after your identity, premises and (for under-18s) Working with Children Check are verified.

If any of that is false: your account can be suspended or permanently banned (email, ABN and device); what you submitted is retained and may be provided to Victoria Police, the Wage Inspectorate Victoria, the Commission for Children and Young People or other authorities; and, where the conduct is an offence, you may be prosecuted under Victorian or Commonwealth law.

I have read this warning. I confirm the information is true and that any placement I offer will be lawful.

How’s Stride going?

You’ve been using it for a bit, so your take is worth having. One number and, if you like, a sentence. It goes straight to the team.

RoughGreat

“OK to show” lets your words (first name only, never your email) appear on the admin dashboard and in Stride materials. Plain Submit stays private to the team.
