BIG MOVE 2019

lack14

@alfonso31 nope, PRs and citizens lang eligible for medicate. Rest including student visa can buy private insurance/health care.

@ali0522 gagana sya pero magastos kc international call. based on my experience before when job hunting, recruiters wont bother reaching out to you if d ka macontact sa primary number, unless they really want to hire you. They wont bother processing you also if they find out na wala ka pa sa AU. And other comment was right, your friend should be willing to register his/her details for the sim kahit prepaid.

alfonso31

@lack14 thanks sa info..

@alfonso31 no worries, also magastos sa part mo kc assuming naconvince mo sila na andun ka AU, bibili ka ng plane tickets just for that interview, unless sunod2x interview schedules mo. some of my friends took a leave of absence sa work para may babalikan ka pa, then naghanap muna odd jobs sa AU while looking for work. mahirap and mabilis maubos savings (dahil sa exchanga rate) pero worth it and bawi lahat pag nakahanap na ng work kc dollars na kinikita mo. apply ka lang ng apply sa seek everyday and customise all CVs to EACH role na inaapplyan mo. may sasagot din jan

alfonso31

@lack14 hndi ata pra saken yang reply mo pra ata kay ali0522 hehe. Anyway in relation sa pag aapply sa Au mag 2 months na kc ako wlang work madami na dn ako na applyan online khit walk in ginawa ko na dn for odd jobs. Every submission ng cv nirerevise ko dn kaso wla pa rn eh, any additional inputs? Pra dn sa mga nag hahanap ng work kagaya ko.

@alfonso31 sorry. ano field mo if you dont mind. you can PM me if you dont want to share it here publicly. Minsan it helps din pag may referral since someone will vouch for you inside. Minsan kelangan mo din ng swerte and good timing. Others do volunteer work (no salary or allowance lang) pero mas ok if related sa field mo para malalagay mo as relevant experience when applying for job.

lack14

@alfonso31 also, update your linkedin profile. madaming recruiters na active sa linkedin, some are nice enough to invest in you, and inform you if they know of an opportunity. just check what field the recruiter is specialising in.

Hi! Ask ko lang need po ba ng 1yr local expe. before magapply sa government? TIA.

agentKams

@RejNaix11 kung sa federal government, need ata aus citizen ang applicants. pag local goverment like council or state govt depends sa requirement nila. madugo lang pagaapply dahil sa selection criteria nila.

batman

@RejNaix11 if you have the required skill set. Applyan mo. I tried applying government post after 4 months here. Na shortlist, Was able to get interview, pero di ako na select sa final. Hehe

RejNaix11

Thank you @agentKams @batman.

@RejNaix11 apply lang ng apply.

Guys, im sure nabasa ko na dito to somewhere but if someone's willing to reiterate, here's a quick question: Ano pinaka murang option to get your ph money to your au bank?
1) Money changer, then bring it on your BM.
2) Transfer?
3) Other options?

XwWrfwx

hey guys. naggpprepare na rin ako for BM.
bale, meron na kami plane tickets for july 17 flight and nagopen na kami ng bank account with NAB. sunod balak ko magschedule na ng pdos.

slight problem lang, nagbago kasi plans namin. eh kaso ung nominated NAB branch namin ay sa ACT, baka may idea kayo kung pwde palitan? prang may nabasa ako sa forum kaso di ko na mabalikan eh.

Mkaye

Hi @tofurad .. I cant answer your question.. but natuwa lang ako kasi same tayo ng flight schedule for the BM...hehe...where in AU ka po?...

gibo43

@tofurad yep, pwede mo papalitan. Punta or itawag mo lang sa kanila na mas malapit sayo yung preferred branch mo. Dun nila ipapadala yung card mo.

barbedwire

@tofurad

Pwede nyo po itry magtanong sa NAB via email kung pwedeng palitan. Nung may issue po ako sa NAB, nagemail lang ako sa kanila ([email protected]). Nagreply po sila after a few days.

Or if di pa po kayo nakakatransfer ng money sa NAB account, pwede sigurong magopen sa ibang bank muna. Then settle the NAB issue pag nasa AU na po kayo.

caienri

@tofurad Agree ako. Maasikaso and mdaling kausap mga tao sa NAB based on experience.
Just email or call them.

quantum

@torfurad ano reqts na hiningi sayo nung nagopen ka account sa NAB via online?

zach@052019

Pansin ko nga mas mabilis ang NAB specially interbank fund transfer, real time. Maasikaso ang mga staff nila

XwWrfwx

@Mkaye oohhh baka magkasalubong pala tayo ng hindi namamalayan. hahaha. sa Melbourne namin balak

@gibo43 whew. ayun buti nalang thanks sa pagconfirm

@barbedwire @caienri thanks rin sa input nyo.
at least mabilis pala sila magrespond. share ko nalang maging outcome para sakali may iba rin magtanong in the future. nagemail naman na ako, antay nalang ako response.

@quantum may fnillup na online form, hiningi TIN number sa PH, tapos pinaemail bio page ng passport.

quantum

@tofurad thanks! Bat nagbago decision mo from ACT to Melbourne? Curious lang..hehe

XwWrfwx

@quantum np. may friend kasi kami sa Canberra, kaso lumipat pala sila ng tinutuluyan kaya hindi nila kami maaccomodate.

so ngaun. dun nalang kami sa target city namin. kaso ang hirap pala maghanap ng matutuluyan.

EDIT: nagbook nalang muna kami ng airbnb sa Melbourne for 2 months.

quantum

@tofurad ganun.. kaya pala.. magkano kuha nyo sa airbnb?

ms_ane

mga kapatid, ang TFN ba need i apply online during nasa AU ka na? may naka accomplish ba nito during IE pa lang? also need ba ang TFN para sa bank, centrelink at medicare registration?
thanks in advance sa makakasagot

zach@052019

@ms_ane TFN: need ng local address, if you have one then pwede online lang kahit overseas ka pa, make sure itatago ng owner ang mails from their office.

Yes kailangan ang TFN sa bank, centrelink and medicare upon registration.

ms_ane

@zach@052019 thank you very much!!! maigi pala nagtanong ako hehehe

RamDas108

Hi po sa inyong lahat. Salamat at simula ngayon dito na ko sa thread niyo makakatambay.

quantum

@ms_ane balak ko apply TFN online 28 days bago ang big move namin.. kc after 28 days pa daw magiging available ang TFN..
