@movingon @shrek43 musta na po mga kayo mga sir? musta ang job hunt? kami papunta palang...

shrek43

hi kabayan, when are you coming here?

sad to say, mahirap ang job hunting ng mga chemical engineers dito..sa industry ko na semicon ay as in wala...kung meron man ay mataas ang skills and experience required..usually chemical engineers sa food industry and oil&gas madami..

suggestion ko sau, pgdating mo ay work on your driving license as well as obtaining a car..kmi kc ay ngpalipas pa kmi ng halos 4 months bago inasikaso ito...second is to find a local reference..2weeks ago ay nkakilala kmi ng pinoy na may business..i ask him to train us and he offered na gawin nmin syang reference..we are so lucky to know him and his family kc sya ung naging daan para makakuha kmi ng job ngyun..third, huwag ka umasa na makakakuha ka ng engineering job sooner..kmi ay hindi nmin ini_expect na ganito khrap mghnap ng work..in terms of experience ay we think ok nman kmi..after 3₄ months saka lng nmin n realize na kelangan n mghnap ng ibang work khit di na in_line sa course ntin..so nasayang ung 4 months nmin pero ok lng.. may knya knyang plan tlga si Lord para sa atin..khit first day mo pa lang sa pg_aapply, aplayan mo na khit odd jobs kc if ever matanggap ka, this will serve as your local reference and local experience...lastly, advise ko ay learn how to speak english fluently..very important ito..akala ko magaling na ako mag_english..hindi p pala hehehe need ko din improve english ko

sa ngayun, mgkakawork na kmi nung kasama kong chem eng din...start na kmi this wednesday...though hindi sia inline sa chem eng (as in hindi sya engineering job), it is a good start to work with...and we are praying na mging ok ang lahat...

@shrek43 napansin ko lang na mabilis ang visa grant nyo after ng July 1 based sa timeline nyo.. 1 month and 2 wks after visa lodgement..hopefully ganyan din sana kabilis ang process after nitong July 1....

@shrek43 ano pong odd job ang nakuha nyo ng frend nyo n chem eng din (if you don't mind)? Isa din po ako s mga hopefuls n gaya nyo at nabasa ko nga po yung tips/advices nyo above. Sa ngayon open-minded po ako to all possibilities. Basta makapunta lang din jan s aussie. Wag po tayong mawalan ng pag-asa, may plano para sa lahat sa tin si Lord. 🙂

@shrek43 keep the faith! Sabi nga ni @pontsiano Padayon brad! Meaning tuloy-tuloy lang! Gamitin nyong stepping stone and never give up in finding ways to achieve your goals or target job! Andami s min nangangarap n anjan n, pero wala pang linaw dahil every year nagbabago rules/fees samantalang kayo nandyan n po sir... I just wanna share Matthew 6:33 and nabaggit din po sya ni fr. Troy kagabi s homily, "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you." Let's keep on praying and believing that God wants us to prosper; be concerned about his kingdom and what has his approval. Then all these things will be given for you. He knows all the desires of our hearts. Be strong eventhough failure comes. Learn and revive ourselves everyday. Yan po, pasensya n sir kung mejo mahaba at seryoso. I know u guys out there are having a hard time, just wanna uplift you... Kaya yan! Pinoy p! Maparaan, Maabilidad, Madiskarte! 😉 🙂 🙂>- 😃 😮)
