@vhoythoy, malaki rin pala ang sweldo ng EA dyan...Senior 3, baka Asst Mgr na equivalent nun sa ibang firms. Question, ano po yung super 9%? hehe
super on top ng basic. More than 9% na yata daw ngaun. So basic is 80k+. Senior 3 is parang supervisor na sya. But parang mas malaki sweldo sa private pa rin. May kakilala ako IT Audit Mgr sa PWC Melbourne. Last year nagtransfer sya sa Seek IT compliance. Mas malaki daw benefits and sweldo. Pero 80k+ is not bad usually ganyan range sa big-4. Manager is nasa 100k-120k+. Sa mga mid tier firm mas mababa parang nsa 65-75k senior auditor.

@catajell - mali kayo... ahahaha!! you could have said na wala pa and just refund your ticket... Ahahaha!! Or at least if non-refundable (like CebuPac or AirAsia) at least magbibigay naman cguro sila ng at least PAL or Qantas.
Anyway, that doesn't matter now... COngratulations again!!

@TasBurrfoot Hahaha.. kaso baka kasi ang mangyari.. magkaibang plane pa kami ni hubby! Hehe.. Pero tama ka, it doesn't matter now.. We are just super thankful talaga for these blessings..
@ImB Siguro nga dahil sa visa. Madalas ayaw nila na ata ngayon magsponsor. Don't worry, pagkagrant ng visa nyo.. kasunod na din ang work nyan! Oo nga, lapit na lipad namin, stressed na ako sa paghahanap ng permanent na titirhan! Haha.. Tapos job hunting na din siguro ako nito!

Congrats! If there are mini catajells, don't stress yourself too much on looking for a job this early. I believe hubby's pay should be sufficient. Malaki din kasi gastos sa child care and before/after school care, not to mention the stress of trying to leave work early to pick up the kids before care centre's closing time usually around 6:15-6:30pm.

Guys, is it advisable ba na magbitbit ng kahit isang lutuan lang? Hehe.. Para na agad ng baon ni hubby since ang first day of work nya ay kinabukasan na agad paglapag namin! May lutuan daw kasi sa temporary accommodation na libre e..

Wow me work ka na rin pala dyan. Tama yan, gain muna nga ng local experience makakalipat ka rin eventually in due time. Based on your experience na dyan, tingin mo ba kung isa lang magwowork dyan for family of 3 makakasurvive? Let's say Sr Auditor yung position nung magwowork...
Ang bilis mo nakuha yung COE mo. Deloitte ako saten. Dito sa Dubai, PwC ako. Ang target ko sana eh makabalik ng PwC pero Australia na. Grabe naman sinisingil talaga...

@Bigfoot : Gagawa pa lang kami ng mga mini me sa OZ! Hahaha.. Pero magpapakhousewife muna ako saglit para makasettle muna kami doon..
Guys, is it advisable ba na magbitbit ng kahit isang lutuan lang? Hehe.. Para na agad ng baon ni hubby since ang first day of work nya ay kinabukasan na agad paglapag namin! May lutuan daw kasi sa temporary accommodation na libre e..
