<blockquote rel="dancingmama">Hi Guys,
Para sa mga nag nanais na makasettle dito sa australia. eto po ang story ko....
Visa Grant December 2012.... masaya.... and then the real problem begins. I prefer to have work muna before going to Australia, i have sent multiple applications (spammer... hahahhah) but most of them requires me to be in australia already before they can proceed with the applications. so a lot of rejected applications. Then one company.... called me up for a telephone interview.... then after one week... another phone interview (same company), then after a week 2 hours technical interview via skype... then akala ko tapos na... then nakareceive ako ng email for final interview but they want it face to face interview.... i said yes without thinking kung saang lupalop ba ng australia ang company na ito... in 1 week, i book the return tickets... book a hotel for 3 days.... spend a chunk of money.... i made the trip... attend the interview and went back to SG..... super pagod pero masaya inisip ko na lang na namasyal ako mag isa... sojourn.... then after a week ayun may offer letter na sila... the suweldo is not bad... pwede ng pang simula..... so i signed the contract, gave my 3 weeks notices, 4th week fly to Pinas to sya bye bye to family and friends... then went back to SG ( ayoko dumaan sa PH immigration papuntang AU baka kung ano ano pang hingin sakin). from SG say good bye to long time house mates..... then fly over here... the company paid na for everything (plane tickets,,, temporary accomodation for 3 weeks) and paid for the our new apartment for 3 months. We got our brand new car na..... suv para astig... joke,,,... hirap kasi mag commute dito.... Thanks god super bait ng mga new office mates ko.... ako lang ang kulay brown dito.... saya...
All these happened in two months...... super dami ng blessings....
Dasal dasal lang mga kapatid......
hope my story will encourage others not to loose hope....</blockquote>
