Thanks guys.
I don't have any work lined up. I have heard from several sources that it's easy enough get a job if your willing to do anything which I am. Once I get money coming in ill start looking for work related to my business degree and masters in food business. I don't have much work experience so I hope that won't hold me back.

John, I donated all of my supps to good homes in the cork area!

 
It would be interesting to know how easy you find it to get work. I'd be seriously interested in going over there if it is easy. Would be a great experience!

      Good luck with your trip!
      What's your occupation?  Do you have a skill or a trade that's in demand over there or have they just granted you a visa to go over and look for work?  If the latter, you must be under 30 years old?

        IB, yes id a stroll around Perth this morning, local staff seem really friendly and polite. The weather is beautiful, close to 40 degrees this week. The place seems really relaxed and chilled out, there my early impressions.
        Regards the cv, yes I've heard cvs can often be up to 6 pages long depending on the job in question.
        Must re do mine again before I apply to places.

            MM, my degree is in business, my masters food business, ideally I'd love to get a job related to that. I don't have much work experience so there fore ill take the first job I can to get money incoming and then I can be more fussy.
            I got a working holiday visa which allows me to work for the year. Im 26

                  Yeah its awesome so far, weather is great, excellent lifestyle, beautiful women everywhere.
                   
                  Only downside so far is seeing the aboriginals inside Perth city centre and they walking around drunk, begging and shouting "white cnuts" and looking to start fights, their an intimidating lot with nothing to lose.
                  I'm sure their not all like this but certain gangs of them do exist in the city and their not pleasant.
                   
                  It appears harder to get a job than the media and people say, I've tried for loads of jobs, my cv is 4 pages, that seems to be the norm, and I've only had one call for an interview which was bloody part time call centre work. Once I get a decent job setup it'll be a big relief.
                   
                  Fanatic are you coming here on a 3 month holiday?
                  I'm out in Bull Creek at the moment, bout 20 mins train from Perth, I would hope to move to Scarborough in the next few months as there's a lovely beach there.

                    Shane I'm coming out on a whv for 1 year, but hopefully I'll be able to find a way to stay out there, if i like it of course!  Lol at the aboriginals shouting 'white cnuts'
                     
                    You going to stay around perth?  Could be more job opportunities around sydney or brisbane.

                      I'd like to stay around here for a while, but if I wish to stay a 2nd year, ill have to do 3 months farm work which could take me anywhere. Sydney is meant to be really expensive, Melbourne could be an option further down the road.

                        Melbourne is just as bad price wise. I was shocked at how pricey some stuff was. Eating out was quite cheap but booze, rent etc was not cheap. Me and the GF both earned very good wages and lived a decent quality of life life but certainly not an extravagant one

                            Get your details out to as many recruitment agencies as you can-the key is to just get working then you sus things out from the Inside-I did some pretty **** jobs for the first year-and yes Sydney is fcking expensive.
