Questions About Applying?
Whether you’re actively looking for your next role or simply exploring what’s available, here are some of the questions we’re most commonly asked by experienced candidates.
What types of roles does Silverstone recruit for?
We recruit experienced professionals across five specialist teams:
- Trades & Dewatering
- Underground Mining
- Mining, Civil & Transport
- Processing, Crushing & Metallurgy
- White Collar
Our opportunities include FIFO, residential, contract and permanent positions across Western Australia.
Do I need previous industry experience?
Yes. Silverstone specialises in recruiting experienced professionals. Most of our roles require relevant industry experience, licences, tickets and the ability to work safely in operational environments.
While entry level opportunities may occasionally become available, they are very limited. If you’re looking to start a career in FIFO or enter the industry without relevant experience, we recommend gaining industry qualifications, licences or transferable experience before applying for specialised roles.
Can I apply if there isn't a role that matches my experience today?
Absolutely. If you don’t find a suitable opportunity, submit your resume and register your interest. Our consultants regularly contact candidates when new roles become available that align with their experience.
How do I know which roles are right for me?
Our consultants review your experience and help identify opportunities that best suit your background, qualifications and career goals. We focus on quality matches rather than simply filling vacancies.
Will I receive feedback after applying?
Where possible, our consultants provide updates throughout the recruitment process. If you’re shortlisted for a role, we’ll guide you through interviews, compliance, mobilisation and onboarding while keeping you informed every step of the way.
