Almost 7 years ang experience ko sa IT, almost 5 years sa project management and 2 years as Business Analyst. Kaso under student visa palang kami, so part-time or 40hrs per fortnight lang allowed ako magwork. Baka meron pwede tumulong sa amin? Actually nagtry ako sa SEEK and LinkedIN, may mga tumatawag naman na employers. Kaso kapag nalaman nila na student visa palang ako, umaayaw na sila agad kasi fulltime daw ang kailangan nila.
Kahit blue collar or kahit anong trabaho muna, kaso until 8pm lang ako pwede kasi magcommute lang ako from Sunshine Coast papunta dyan sa Brisbane.
Salamat sa lahat and God bless
