@hotshot - sa chartered po.asawa ko po IT. "based on my opinion", mas maganda po ang employment opportunities dito sa Australia compared sa US. dati natatakot pa ako kasi naexperience ko maghanap ng work sa US. dito lagi kang may response tapos d k naman papabayaan ni Lord. Pde k rin magpart time and work legally.

@hotshot Wala pa sya dito pero chinichika ko yung mga recruiter. May isa n nga n tumwag s kanya pero d p nmin alam pnu ang progress. Nung wala pa ako dto, nagaapply din ako sa seek. Puro rejection ntatanggap ko kaya rin ako natakot pumunta dto. Make sure lang po n pinagisipan mabuti ang cv and cover letter. I address po sila sa letter. Grammar, at iba pang details. Karapatan ksi nilang maging nitpicky. Kung wala s mga recruiter ang pumansin. Prioritise po ung private advertiser kc "sa tingin ko" sila yung masmatyaga at mas may chance k s knila

hi guys, andito na pala ako melbourne 🙂

TFN - nag apply na ako online, will take 28 days before i get one (as per the email)

MEdicare - may number na ako, pero walang ID. sinamahan ako ng tita ko kanina sa mall na may branch ng medicare.

Bank Account - nagtayo na ako ng online account sa NAB, makukuha ko daw yung starter pack by next week.

Work - kahapon at ngayon, buong araw na akong nag aapply.

ok lang pala di maligo dito, kasi malamig naman eh. di bumabaho mga damit ko, kaya di pa ako nagpapalit. LOL

@viannej08 haha uu nga medyo malamig para sken, pero lamigin naman talaga ako 🙂

LokiJr

kung initial entry ko ay sa winter season sa Australia, mas mura ba kung sa Pinas ako bibili? Or puwede na bumili sa Australia? Mabigat din kasi mga jacket hehe

kenkoy

@LokiJr u bring some & just buy a vacuum plastic storage bags sa handyman or SM. malaking space ang madadagdag sa 'yo.

i'm done with the following:

medicare (needed ang bank acct number)

tax file number (applied online)

NAB bank acct (need to go back to medicare to furnish them my bank acct number)

RTA photo capture card (needs another ID other than the passport. my credit card did it)

all of these need the passport & visa (stamped or DIAC letter). isa pa, akala ko tapos na lahat ang mga gastusin...RTA photo capture card costs $48.

better in order to avoid going back,

TFN

bank acct (at the same day with the next)

medicare

RTA photo card (can be done later once bank has sent u a letter of confirmation)

did i miss anything?

how about centrelink? kelangan pa po ba yun?

saka yung sa RTA...tapos na kayo mag-exam? 🙂

kenkoy

@hotshot no need for the centrelink for me & my son. ang alam ko ang perm res will only be eligible after 2 years pa yata. i just don't know pag meron children involved. my son is an adult & employed.

re RTA, it's not a license yet. it's only a photo capture card for ur identification in case u chance upon an immigration officer asking for ur identity. kumbaga, no need to bring ur passport all the time. mahirap na rin baka mawala pa ang passport. pero once na maka undergo ako ng driving lessons, kahit for 2 hours lang, & have read the handbook on the rules of the street, by then madali na for me to take the written & practical test. ewan ko, di ko pa alam how to unlearn my driving habits. pero madalas pinanonood ko ang flow ng traffic esp sa major thoroughfares & roundabout. after kong maipasa lahat yan, hahanap ako ng mga aussies na nagdi-drifting. sasali ako. 😃
