    Hi everyone! I need some advise for the course that i'm going to take. I live in Acacia Ridge, Brisbane and I was planning to take Certificate in Engineering mechanical trade or Certificate in automotive electrical technology. I have a background in engineering, but the school manager told me that Automotive electrical is more in-demand here and the path for permanent residency is easier.
    Any advise is very much appreciated. Thank you!

    ^I see. Well madali na lang yan pag nandito ka na. Mas prefer ng employer pag face to face interview. Kung mahirap maghanap sa private sector, madami namang posting na gov't jobs, boring nga lang kasi petiks petiks mga tao dun. :)
