Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about starting with FTS.

What is FIFO Trade Solutions?

FIFO Trade Solutions (FTS) is an affordable online membership platform helping people get started in Australia’s FIFO industry. For just $9.99 AUD per month, members access step-by-step guides, resume and interview resources, employer and recruiter directories, and practical industry advice. Compared with some services costing hundreds of dollars, FTS focuses on genuine value and accessible FIFO career guidance.

What is included in the FTS membership?

For just $9.99 AUD per month, members unlock eight resource categories covering entry-level FIFO roles, tickets and qualifications, resume creation tools and templates, interview preparation, employer and recruiter directories, Australian visa information, FIFO lifestyle advice and insider tips. Members can email FIFO support 24/7, with replies during support hours, and access step-by-step resources and ongoing content updates.

Is FTS suitable for beginners?

Absolutely! FTS is designed for people with little or no FIFO experience, including first-time applicants and career changers. Our step-by-step guides cover entry-level opportunities, essential qualifications, resumes, interviews and preparing for your first swing.

Can Working Holiday Visa holders use FTS?

Yes! FTS is suitable for backpackers and Working Holiday Visa holders exploring FIFO opportunities in Australia. Our resources cover entry-level roles, employer information, qualifications, resume preparation and general visa and work-rights information. Always check your individual visa conditions with the Australian Department of Home Affairs.

Do you guarantee I’ll get a FIFO job?

No service can guarantee employment. FTS provides practical guidance, resume and interview tips, employer and recruiter contacts, and step-by-step resources to help you prepare for FIFO opportunities. Success depends on your applications, effort and meeting employer requirements. FTS is not a recruitment or placement agency.

How can FTS help improve my FIFO resume?

Our resume guides focus on Australian FIFO and mining roles rather than generic applications. We explain resume structure, relevant experience, industry-specific keywords and ATS-friendly formatting, with practical examples and templates to help you create a stronger resume.

What is an ATS, and why is it important for FIFO jobs?

An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software many mining companies and recruiters use to manage job applications. Poor formatting or missing relevant keywords can make your resume harder to assess or find. FTS provides guidance on ATS-friendly formatting, industry-specific keywords and resume structure.

Can FTS help me get into FIFO if I’m moving to Australia from overseas?

Absolutely! FTS provides practical guidance for international applicants exploring Australia’s FIFO industry, including visa and work-rights information, entry-level roles, resume preparation, qualifications and relocation tips. We help you understand where to start and how to prepare, but cannot guarantee work or visa approval.
