Shirlie: nakita ko lng..baka kasi dpat meron din tyo niyan.. yep I made it clear na..namali lng pla xa ng dinig.

Shirlie

Hi Guys/Gals,
End of the month na naman. May mga unsuccessful na emails from agency and direct companies. is it true na ung mga job post may naka slot na sa position and formality na lang un?

hard2handle

possible na ganun nga shirlie. pero I don't think na that is always the case. Kumusta na apply nyo? May nakakuha na ba sa inyo ng work miski casual or odd job?

In my case, will undergo induction with COLES on Wednesday. Hopefully mag tuloy tuloy un. Si Axln nag-meet na kami sa Vicroads. kumuha sya ng Hazard Perception test while I took the driving test and flunk it. hehe....

hard2handle

http://www.skilledmigrationservices.com.au/ May nakasubok na ba sa inyo mag-apply dyan? nabanggit saken nung nasa connect group ako na baka matulungan tayo.

axln

@Shirlie yup, possible but wag mawalan ng pagasa. Apply lang ng lang swertihan lang din talaga. Suggest ko lang na pag may opportunity na kahit casual or temp grab it importante yung local experience. Good luck. Right now I have a casual job but not stopping on applying for a new job. Nagkita nga kmi ni @hard2handle sa vicroads trying to get a full driver's license para makadadag sa qualifications.

@hard2handle nakapagpa-book ka na ulit ng driving test?

hard2handle

Oo bro, July 18 sa Sunshine ulit. Kaw, nagpa-book ka na ba?

axln

@hard2handle ah ok! Di pa eh. Wala pang available time eh.

rolly04

@hard2handle congrats may work ka na pala sa coles

hard2handle

@rolly04 bukas pa ang induction ko. sa mga wala pang job try nyo din mag sign-up sa coles or bunnings,etc.. stable companies mga yun and ok ang benefits. Ang salary sa palagay ko at par din sa mga ibang entry level jobs na nakikita ko sa seek.

@axln try mo nlng ng sat, meron nman vicroads pag sat e. musta work sa city and Friday office parties? hehe

rolly04

@hard2handle ano ibig mo sabihin ng induction? bale bukas na start ng work mo, ganun ba?

hard2handle

prang orientation yun.

axln

@hard2handle oo nga siguro pagsumahod na siguro. Good luck bro and congrats. Balitaan tyo. Kailan ba get together natin di na natuloy yung inoorganize mo.

hard2handle

@axln thanks bro!

rolly04

@Shirlie about job posting in internet, not always true na formality na lang yun kasi yung work ko ngayon sa www.seek.com.au ko nakuha.

Shirlie

Congrats rolly! Fr sg to au may work na agad. Ako on going padin mga interview. Nasang side kb dito Melbourne?

rolly04

Hi @Shirlie dito ako sa deerpark. Malapit sa brimmbank shopping center.

athenalady14

do you think advisable ba na palitan ang position/title? may nabasa kasi akong isang article that some tends to change their designation especially for the higher ones. I am just thinking like may point kasi if you are applying for an entry level but manager ka back in the Philippines, recruitment side medyo mismatch. Any thoughts? Thank you.

axln

@athenalady14 yup, over qualified ka pagganon so taylor fitting talaga ng resume.

Shirlie

@rolly04,
hi! malimit kami dyan sa brimmbank nag grocery. dati sa derrimut kami nakatira ngayon sa may st albans na. malapit lng ang brimmbank.
sa city ba job location mo?

athenalady14

axln : yeah...overqualified nga..:(..so there's no harm if I change my title to fit in to the requirements..thanks for the advise..

rolly04

reference is also very important sa job hunting. in my case, tinawagan ng employer ko yung dalawang boss ko dati sa singapore. pag nagpalit kayo ng title, be careful lang baka kasi iba yung sasabihin ng reference nyo dun sa nilagay nyo sa resume.

axln

@rolly04 has a point. If ever siguro wag masyadong malayo yung job title. Advise kasi sa akin if you are aiming for managerial role that's the time that you can highlight the managerial title but kung entry level mahirap talagang ilagay yung manager role. Better omit it or just combine it with your previous role na hindi managerial role. Medyo mahirap talagang magtaylor fit ng cv. Yung cousin kong doctor when they first got here hindi pa sila makapagpractice so they opted to work sa labour as in warehouse casual pa. Para mapansin nung recruitment agency high grad lang yung nilagay nya sa cv. Good luck na lang sa atin. My casual job is ending on Friday. Hanap-hanap ulit.

axln

Kamusta pala mga family nyo pati din mga 496ers na asa Pinas? Hope everyone is safe.

athenalady14

@rolly04 and @axln: thanks sa advise. my other dilemma is my LinkedIn profile. Most employers also check LinkedIn profile. While I wanted to place my qualification there for the purpose of attracting possible employers, on the other hand if an employer do a check through LinkedIn and changing my titles, I think that will be a mess. Kaya super nahihirapan talaga ako..:(

Shirlie

@rolly04,
kapag ba hiningan na ng character reference at completion ng 100points docs malaki na chance makuha job? after ma complete yan job offer naba?

thanks to advise.

rolly04

@Shirlie i think malaki chance. Goodluck mate.

On a different topic, pag gusto nyo magkaroon ng ID na issued by australian govt, magtake kayo ng driver learner's exam sa vicroads. Valid for 10 yrs yung ID. Nakalagay dun sa ID yung name, address, bday at photo mo. To pass the exams, you just need 25 correct answers out of the 32 multiple choice questions.

Shirlie

thanks rolly04!

guys/gals,
re ID, better get that drivers ID. if nakahanap na kayo ng work at hiningan kayo ng requirements may points na equivalent yan. as per my experienced lately, min 100 points required para sa australian police check.

fyi too.

hard2handle

Hi all!

May allowance for new arrivals re 100 points proof of ID. Not sure nga lang if 3 months or gang 6months yung window na yun. But sa experience ng wife ko, letter from bank (to show your home address), driver's licence (kahit yung Pinas) and of course yung passport and visa. Maganda narin na mag-apply na agad ng TFN para additional identification narin yun and para meron narin ready pag may work offer na.

Shirlie

@hard2handle,
Ung special provisions is only 6wks upon arrival. 100 points na agad providing passport.

Rgds,

axln

@Shirlie @hard2handle iba-iba ba per company yung 100 points ID. Yung sa pinuntahan ko kanina, pag recent arrival for non-citizen or resident (less than 3 months) -valid passport lang 100 points na.
