    What do you guys recommend? Hanap ng work while in PH, ( kasi may current work ) or sa AU na mismo maghanap? Hirap lang kasi mag apply sa PH kasi pag interview.

    you will have a better chance of landing a job kung nandito ka na sa AU compared kung mag apply ka from Pinas.. may mga migrants na nakahanap ng work while nasa Pinas pa.. pero madalang..

    this... i agree. wala naman mawawala if maghahanap ka ng work while nasa pinas pa. just that usually, companies want face to face interview, or start work asap. so just try to manage expectations lang siguro.

    @sunflower mas gumanda yung structure..the way yung pag present ng mga accomplishments is better.. pero syempre ala din naman na 100% guarantee na pag nagpagawa ka ng resume.. ay sure ball na magkakawork ka.. it will still be a risk.. it might work for your to land a job.. pwede din naman hindi...

    @Panasonic bro which state are you currently residing? I am from Queensland, an Electrical Engineer in Philippines but having a hard time looking for technical jobs here. Yung gaya kasi ng hinahanap mo bro, here in Queensland they require all the necessary license kaya hirap din ako makapasok.

    Just read your email now. May experience ka ba sa elevator? Anong visa at the moment? Sis ako, sorry. My husband is too busy to do this. Andito ako sa Western Australia, Perth. Mabuti nga nareleased yung visa kahapon noong kinukuha kong tao sa Pinas. Kung may experience ka sa elevator at willing kang pumunta dine, ihahire ka namin. then later on na nating pag uusapan yung mga requirements na need nila for your license. Need mo kaseng pumasok uli kahit sa TAFE para marecognise yang license mo. Ireply mo lang ako kung anong maitutulong ko.
