Work Experience Trainees who engage in a 10-week Seasonal Program are paired with one of Scarf's wonderful work experience partner venues early in the program, based on their interest and availability. Scarf facilitates 8 weeks of work experience for each trainee (one paid shift per week), working closely with venue owners and mentors to ensure a supportive, positive and encouraging atmosphere for the trainee. These shifts allow trainees to gain real, paid work experience in some of Melbourne's best venues whilst building skills, knowledge, networks and confidence. . Our current work experience funding partner is CoLabel Brands. They make regular donations which allow Scarf to pay trainees award wages for all work experience shifts which happen in partner venues. . . . Current Work Experience Partners . We're grateful to the work experience partners who took on a trainee for Autumn Scarf '24 - Starward, Stomping Ground Brewery & Beer Hall, Pullman Melbourne Albert Park, Tippy-Tay (Garden State Hotel), Liminal, Square One Rialto and Allpress Espresso. And, we're excited to work with our new work experience partners - Sporting Club Hotel and Boilermaker House - from Winter Scarf '24 onwards! . . Want to know more?
