Common questions.
Clear answers about our candidate assessments, replacement guarantees, and staffing models.
Staff augmentation places WAO-trained independent contractors (ABN holders) at your site under a service agreement — it avoids the employer-of-record and labour-hire licensing complexity that a true temp agency model requires. True temp staffing is a Phase 3 offering, pending a compliant labour-hire structure.
If it's a performance issue within the first 3 months, WAO replaces the candidate at no additional fee — no conditions beyond that..
No — WAO Talent is a standalone service. Any Australian business hiring for a role that touches Odoo can use it, whether or not you use WAO for bookkeeping.
It's a 45-minute online test covering chart of accounts logic, reconciliation workflows, BAS coding, AP/AR processes, and report interpretation. Candidates need a minimum pass score before they're ever presented to you — it's reviewed quarterly to reflect current Odoo versions and compliance changes.
Stop interviewing candidates who can't use the system.
