For Candidates

Get matched by an engineer, not a keyword filter.

Torren Technical sources for Australian employers across engineering, industrial trades, construction, and property maintenance. Every registration is reviewed personally — not parsed by a robot.

Why register

What you get from us.

💸

Zero candidate fees

We're paid by employers, not by you. No registration fees, no placement fees, no "premium services" upsell. Ever.

🔧

Technical fit, not keyword fit

Your registration is reviewed by someone who reads engineering specs. If we put you forward, it's because the role actually matches you.

🔒

You own your data

Privacy Act compliant. Explicit consent at registration. Request deletion any time. We never share your details without your say-so.

📞

Honest feedback

If you're not the right fit for current roles, we'll tell you why and what would change that. No ghosting.

🇦🇺

Australian-focused

Roles across all states. Permanent, contract, FIFO, hybrid. Work rights honestly discussed up front, not at the offer stage.

Respect for your time

We don't waste your time with mismatched calls or roles you'd never take. If we get in touch, it's because we have something real.

FAQs

Common questions.

Are you a typical recruitment agency?

No. Most agencies are sales-led with engineers nowhere in the process. Torren Technical is run by an engineer who personally reviews every candidate and brief.

What disciplines do you cover?

Engineering, industrial trades, construction, and property maintenance. If your discipline isn't in the dropdown, select "Other" and tell us.

Do I need to be in Australia?

For most roles, yes — with valid work rights. We don't provide immigration advice (that's MARA-regulated), but we can work with candidates already in-country or with confirmed sponsorship arrangements.

How long until I hear back?

Within 5 business days for the initial review. If we have a current role match, sooner. If not, we'll keep your details on file with your consent and reach out when something fits.

Will my current employer find out?

No. We never share your details with any employer without your explicit per-role consent. Your CV doesn't leave our system without you saying "yes, send it to that company".

Can I delete my data?

Yes, at any time. Email candidates@torrentechnical.com with the subject "Delete my data" and we'll action it within 5 business days.
