To find the most skilled radio technicians for roles in the Air Force, we created a job application that engineering students had to build themselves. After spending months working with factories in China and Malaysia to bring it to life, 15000 packs were distributed. It became one of Australia's most awarded campaigns of the year.

Messages from the front line
We were briefed to create an above the line campaign to recruit experienced doctors for the Air Force. Instead of creating a traditional ad, we sent doctors real patients (well, real patients with simulated traumas). 30 of Australia's top specialists were sent patients with medical conditions based on real military cases. It won a gold at Cannes.
This campaign involved months of research, digging through military medical journals to find compelling cases for each type of civilian medical speciality. We then worked with a production company to bring the traumas to life, training actors to correctly respond so that real doctors could diagnose and treat their simulated condition. The live stunts were followed up by medical case files which were distributed to thousands of doctors across Australia. For the first time since the Vietnam War, the Air Force received more applications from medical specialists than they could use.
