    What’s it like working at State Swim?

    AI summary of recent reviews
    Employees appreciate the flexibility at State Swim, particularly for university students, along with the supportive and friendly work environment. The strong team culture fosters lasting friendships, and staff find teaching swimming rewarding, with opportunities for growth and skill development within the company.

    However, there are some potential challenges, such as short shift hours limiting earning potential, pay rates that are average compared to public pools, occasional concerns about pool water quality, communication around shift changes sometimes being given on short notice, and management turnover with experienced managers occasionally transferred without much notice.

    Incredible job for high school and university students.
    The good thingsI began working at State Swim while I was a university student. The managers have been excellent in ensuring that every time my timetable changes, they give me new shifts when the opportunity arises. The community that we have at State Swim is fantastic, and so many friendships have been made. The company is always open to helping however and whenever they can and is always looking for feedback to improve the working environment.
    The challengesAs State Swim is a chain in the swimming teaching area, sometimes the managers can be swapped around. The more experienced managers may leave us to help another State Swim without much notice.

    Overall, my experience at StateSwim was positive, with a supportive environment and excellent flexibility, though there’s room for improvement in communication and scheduling.
    The good thingsStateSwim offers excellent flexibility, which has been particularly beneficial while balancing university commitments. The supportive and accommodating work environment makes it an ideal workplace for students or anyone seeking a role that allows for a healthy work-life balance.
    The challengesWhile my overall experience at StateSwim was positive, one area for improvement would be the communication around shift changes and rostering. At times, updates were given on short notice, making planning challenging.
