Hi, Im from Singapore and have been in Perth close to a year.
I have been looking for jobs non stop and has been depressing thus far. Have been to numerous agencies but nothing yet. Anyone care to share or give tips on getting a job? Was working as Legal Secretary in Singapore and looking for any admin/office jobs available.
Would love to make new friends too...
Cheers
Lenny

Hello Lenny.
Welcome to Expat.com! 
I invite you to read these articles on Work/Labor market in Australia.
You can post an advert in the Jobs in Perth section as well. It could help.
Good luck in your research,
Aurélie

I have no idea! Been sending hundreds of resume and been to a few interviews and it's depressing to get rejected over and over again. Maybe it's because I'm a migrant. And some even say they prefer Australian Citizens.
