Totoo yan. Kaya ako rin nagstop na munang maghanap ng work while overseas. Every time kasi may kumokontact saakin regarding work, gusto nila interview agad (in person) and umaayaw sila pag nalalaman nila na wala pa ako sa Australia haha. Sige, good luck saatin sa paghahanap ng trabaho!
@Liolaeus
Ang mahal naman nung accommodation niyo! Buong house na ba yun? Yung akin naman houseshare ang mga tinitignan ko dahil ako lang naman mag-isa so usually $150 and below ang presyo.

Hehe, maaga ako pumapasok sa school para iwas traffic eh! Onga eh, very limited yung mga information na nakasulat sa listings. Pero at least meron kayong temporary sa pwedeng tuluyan. So after nun, pwede kayong makahanap ng accommodation yourselves para makita niyo in person.

On 1 September 2015, Australia ceased issuing visa labels to holders of Australian visas. Australian visas are issued and recorded electronically. All visa records are stored in a central database which enables online checking of visa details by visa holders, registered Australian organisations and airline staff. Your visa is linked to your passport or ImmiCard through its unique identification number. You and other parties need this number when checking your visa online.
