The Boolba way

Stop applying.
Get found.

Instead of rewriting a CV and applying job by job, you fill out one living profile — and the employers come to you.

Create your profile — free
Your profile is your resume
Build it once — trade, tickets, availability, the pay you want. No CV to rewrite, ever.
Employers come to you
One profile, thousands of employers. They search and contact you directly — no reapplying job by job.
Real jobs, real rates
Set your rate up front, so you only hear about local work that actually pays it.

How it works

Three steps. Then the jobs come to you.

Full walkthrough
01

Build your profile once

Add your trade, tickets and licences, the gear you run, where you'll travel and the pay rate you want. It takes a couple of minutes — and that profile is your resume.

02

Employers find and contact you

Local employers search by trade, location and availability. When your profile fits a job, they reach out to you directly. No applying job by job, no rewriting a CV.

03

Stay active with one text

Every so often we text you to check you're still looking. Reply Y to stay visible or N to pause — no logging back in, no re-uploading anything. That's it.

The one-text mechanic

One text keeps you working.

Staying visible is the hard part everywhere else. On Boolba it’s a single letter — we text to check you’re still looking, you reply, and you stay at the top of employer searches.

Reply Y — stay active
Reply N — pause anytime

We share your details only with employers hiring for a job — never sold to advertisers.

Set up my profile on a smoko break and had a sparky outfit call me two days later. Didn't apply for a single thing — they came to me.

Love that I don't have to keep logging in. A text pops up, I reply Y, and I'm back at the top of the list. Couldn't be easier.

Put my real rate and my white card on there once. Now I just get contacted for jobs that actually pay what I'm after.

Questions, answered

Is Boolba free for workers?

Yes. Creating your profile and getting matched to jobs is completely free for workers. You'll never pay to be found by an employer.

Do I need a resume to sign up?

No — your Boolba profile is your resume. You build it once with your trade, tickets, availability and the pay rate you want, and that's what employers see. No CV to write or upload.

What's the deal with the text messages?

To keep job matches relevant, we send you an occasional SMS to check you're still looking for work. Reply Y to stay active and visible, or N to pause. You never have to log back in to stay on the list.

Who gets my contact details?

Only employers who want to hire you. When you match with a job, the employer can get your contact details so they can reach out directly about that opportunity — that's the whole point of Boolba. We don't sell your details to advertisers and we never show your number on a public profile. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.

Where does Boolba operate?

Boolba is currently Australia-only, with workers and employers right across the country. We're focused on doing one market properly before expanding.
