New members of the Australia forum, introduce yourselves here - 2018

Thanks Stumpy.
I will finish my studies within three months.
I would like to start the process to move to Australia soon after my studies.
Yes, I need a job. That is the most important. I need information about jobs. I worked as an electrician for 9 years and as an engineer for 4 years in my country. I have also worked in Thailand as English and Physics teacher at different schools and Teaching assistant here at the university for 4 years.
Is it possible to take those exams before being an Australian resident? Taking exams online or in Australia on a visitor visa.
Is it possible to apply for qualifications recognition by Australian authorities before being Australian resident? Which body is responsible?

Good day

To get residency takes 2 years. Your employer will arrange the appropriate visa for you. It will not be a permanent residency visa only a work visa.

You will have to take exams to show you are conversant with trade practices in Australia before you can work. No online exams.

Your qualifications will be checked over and verified as part of the visa / immigration process.

Hi all,

Hello all,

I am a young hospitality professional landing in Brisbane at the end of September. I am coming with a working holiday visa, looking to find a job in a hotel or restaurant in Brisbane. Admittedly I would like to find a sponsored job from there. If any of you has advices or previous experiences maybe within your network that could relate, it would great to hear about it!! I'm also happy to chat with people living in Brisbane to socialise when I get there!
Thanks in advance

Hi Carl and welcome to the forum

Hi everybody!
I'm Adrian. I'm 33 and have been living in Australia for over 2 years. I'm born in Belgium to an English mum and a Belgian dad and have lived in Peru for 5 years as a child. I'm currently coaching Beacon Hill (northern beaches suburb) under 9 year olds (football - the real European one). I'm a massive football addict and support Liverpool FC. I love sports in general and also do interval training in my spare time.

On a professional level, I have a financial institution background (corporate financial markets - securities trade and settlement) and since I've been in Australia, I have been struggling to get a job in that sector so I'm definitely looking to broaden my network and to make a few friends along the way too.

Looking forward to hearing from the community and share interests!

My name is Madhu Panthee, originally from Nepal, from the top of the world. Moved to Austrlia in 2008. Loving and enjoying the life over here. Perth is a best place to live and visit in Austrlia.

Hey everyone,

I'm super new so i hope i don't get annoying with all the questions i ask!

Just got back from a 3 weeks holiday in Australia. Stayed in lovely New Castle, did coffee cruise and a free walk tour around Sydney, went to Blue Mountain, had lunch buffet at Westfield tower, walked around the area, watched movies and checked out pubs. I just find it awesome and the people are so friendly. I never thought I would be thinking of visiting one country twice but I guess I'll go back before my visit visa expires😊

Hello
I'm married and have no kids yet .  I currently  live in Greece but would love to move to Australia>

For those of you who are looking to move to Australia you should check this website www.immi.gov.au for visa information and applications.

Also take the time to read through other threads here for information as this has all been covered many times before.

Hello everyone.

I have lived as an expat for over 20 years, on four continents with five international moves over that time. We've been in Aus for 11 years now, and I totally relate to the challenges of re-establishing one's self in a new country.

I always get asked about jobs and cost of living. All I can say is that I have worked in Fin Services and had a high six-figure salary, but every time I build a good team, I get made redundant and my team carries the role until they find someone cheaper than I was to employ. So, I finally decided that I would only focus on building a business for myself - preferably a one-man show where I had flexibility and portability - but where income potential was the same (or better) than my last role. You need a high six-figure income to live well over here.

I chose to build an online business in a field that I love, which travels with me and one I can keep for the rest of my working life irrespective of where I live or travel.

Thankfully, I'm on that path right now and so happy I won't have to sell my time to the corporates again

For visas www.immi.gov.au 

For jobs try a Google search. The sort of job you are seeking is usually done by locals.
You could try a working holiday visa.

thanks for your reply yes there are lot of jobs in google but i don't know which one is trusted i need the real website that i could look for jobs.will you help me?

Hello everyone... I'm maggie from Malta and I'm very much looking into moving to Australia... Melbourne in particular.  I'm married and we're 35 years old which makes it slightly harder since we can't seem to apply for a work and holiday visa.  Any tips on where to start?  We want to find out how to find a job and a place to stay for long term.  But we want to understand how to get nominated etc... Any help would really be appreciated!
