Hello, everyone!
I just got granted a working Visa yesterday. 😃 I graduated with a degree in industrial Engineering from the University of the Philippines and currently have 1.5 years experience with Hewlett-Packard as an SAP Finance Consultant (IT).
I will be arriving in February 2013 and I have a couple of questions:
I don't have any relatives in OZ and will be doing everything solo, is it difficult to find cheap lodging (around $150-200/wk), and where would I look for ads?
Is it difficult to get a part-time job while looking for permanent/full-time employment (since I'll only be bringing money good for 2-3 months, and hoping part-time jobs would cover expenses while searching for a permanent job)?
I only know of seek.com.au for job searching- is this adequate?
Could I ask for a rough estimate of monthly living expenses?
Madami bang Pinoy sa Melbourne? 😃 feel ko ma-ho-homesick ako e 🙁
