After 1 month of sending out applications and receiving rejections (actually most of them no reply), we went to a fruit and veggies market walking distance from our accomodation. The owner asked us if we are new to the place and upon knowing na jobless, he offered a job and support until we can find a full or part time job. Open nga lang sya from Fri-Sun. So, my wife and I accepted the offer, the thing is libre na kami with bread, milk, chocolate minsan, fruits and veggies etc. Meat na lang binibili namin so laking tipid and di na namin nagagalaw ang savings.
Eventually, si esmi nakahanap ng part time work after a week so ako na lang nagwowork sa market.
By the end of April nagenrol ako sa isang cert 3 course na funded ng govt. with a package of forklift license. It runs for about 3 months and since wala pa naman nagrereply sa mga inaplyan ko sabi ko aral muna ako ng konti. May 2 nga pala nagreply sa applictns ko but I failed kasi wala ako sasakyan. :-(. Then came the unexpected, my trainor in the cert 3 course asked me 1 day, out of the blue if I'm interested for a job. I said yes, without further hesitation. The next day he took me to the company without informing na yun na pala day I will get interviewed.
1 time interview lang with the operations manager, hindi ako naintemidate because he was very laid back and questions were pretty straight forward. After the interview the manager asked me if i could start ASAP, as in ASAP. So all in all it took me 4 days from interview to completing the requirements to starting. It just happened 2 weeks ago the same time I successfully converted my Phil license to SA license. :-). I get to keep my job at the market on Sundays and they will sponsor me for further training and licensing of other forklift qualifications.
ok yun lang. 3 months na kami dito and everything is unfolding smoothly.
The reason nga pala I got recommended for a job and accepted is because of attitude shown in the training supported by referees.

@donking most likely parehas ang kahihinatnan namin ni misis sa experience nyo sir, odd jobs muna just to get by. Question lang po, paano nyo po nalaman na may free government funded cert III courses pala? I am so excited now with this info, we want to learn and earn at the same time with the least possible cost. Sydney area po pala kami mag initial entry..

Dumating kami sa Brisbane 2nd week ng June. So nung paglapag namin dito sympre first week pasyal pasyal kasi inde pa din nag ssink in samin na andito na kami sa lugar na ilang taon naming pinangarap mapuntahan, ilang milyong visit sa website para lang macheck kung nainvite na kami, araw araw na pagtawag sa clinic kung naupload na yung medicals, minuminutong pag check sa email kung may case officer na, nakakaumay na refresh ng page kung nareceive na yung uploaded files namin, at sandamakmak na kung anu ano pang pangungulit....at finally "The day that the Lord has made" ay dumating na...at fast forward...andito na kami sa brisbane airport.
Bago pa kami dumating dito ni mind set ko na talaga na 3 months bago ako makakakuha ng trabaho. Before pa, madami na kong nisubmit na applications pero panay rejection letter o kaya ang iba dedma lang. Pakatapos nung unang linggong simba namin, apply apply na naman ulit kasi madaming time eh walang magawa. Ganun pa din , panay rejection letter at dedma sa inaapplyan ko. Usually daw talaga kasi inaantay ng recruiter yung closing date bago magsimula yung recriutment process. May apat na versions ako ng CV at cover letter para may konting customisation din kasi advise ng madami na ipersonalize daw bawat application eh pero kasi mahirap nakakatamad gawin kaya bawat application ko sa SEEK at CAREERONE ay isang mabilisang upload/submit lang. So sa madaling sabi araw araw bawat umaga ay SEEK at CAREERONE ang focus ko. Nagbigay ulit ako ng deadline sa sarili ko na after 1 month na wala pa eh mag apply ako sa MCDO. Dumating ang ikatlong linggo at nakabingwit din ako ng isang recruiter, pakatapos ng isang exam at apat na interviews sa isang buung linggo…. At dun na nagsimula ang “the rest of our lives” dito sa Australia. Kung di ko nakuha tong offer na to, wala na din akong ibang options din kundi si MCDO at iba pang odd jobs which I don’t mind doing. Inde ko sasabihing madaling makakuha ng trabaho, siguro kombinasyon lang ng determination/faith/swerte/good timing/opportunity ang nangyari sakin na inde imposibleng mangyari sa iba. As we speak, kumakain ako ng lunch ko dito sa office habang binibisita si pinoyau na naging malaking parte na ng aming paglalakbay. Maraming salamat po.
