    @taspinoy Hi. I just wanted to ask if there are any opportunities for mechanical engineers there? Yung mga manufacturing companies etc?
    hi maam, meron naman pong opportunity pero napakaseldom po. may manufacturing namang company like cadburry at yoghurt. gaya ng ibang industry swertihan pa din po at dasal po :)
    hi guys. anyone here can share the job marlet in hobart? mga what is the average weekly pay in hobart especially IT na mga PR. i am beginning to like tassie since i wanted to have a slower pace of life. medyo hectic kasi life ko ngayon and have been on my industry for over 12 years.thank you. :)
    in terms of weekly pay, hindi nman masyadong nagkakalayo sa mainland. at agree ako na mas magugustuhan mo dito since slower pace nga.

    nung nagpunta kami dito sa australia a year ago, i was aiming melby pero dito ako nakahanap ng opportunity at after ko maexperience dito na around 10 minutes lang ang byahe (either bus or car) magbabago din talaga ang pananaw mo at parang ayaw mo nang magpunta sa city. hindi ka pagod pagkauwe ba. :)

    maraming pinoy dito at may dalawang grupo nga. regarding nman sa opportunity, cguro 1:100 pag icompare mo sa melbourne ang opportunity pag nasa IT industry ka pero mas konti naman ang competition kung may makita ka mang opening.
    Question po: Pwede po ba mag-apply for State Nomination dito sa Tassie kahit walang employer? Ilan din po ang IELTS requirements nila? Thank you po sa info.
    let's wait po sa iba. wala po ako idea sa tanong nyo :)

Need advice talaga ako kasi mga nxt yr move-in na kami dyan. Salamat guys.

    Hi guys!

    Would you think it's a good idea to study at UTAS? Meron kasi sila scholarship for international students. I've read a lot of positive things about TAS such as its people having a laid back lifestyle. However, may isang article din ako nabasa na hindi maganda ang economy dyan. Gusto ko din sana kasi makapagwork kahit papaano. Although less ang competition, madami din bang trabaho dyan for aspiring students like me?

    Thank you.

    So as per their website, they are requiring a formal job offer if you will apply for state sponsorship.. Anyone recently tried 190 for Tasmania that did not require the job offer? Thanks
    pag nka lagay po sa website na they require job offer..u need it po tlaga. thats what happend to me sa WA so i ddnt continue nlg after they invited me to apply for state nomination kc 30days lg din binigay ng WA. malabo mahire kana within 30days esp if nag aaply aply kapalang..

    very enticing to live in Hobart. Prang worth d try :)

    Goodluck!

    @jkk32w Thanks, yes.. gusto ko din sana i try.. pero yun nga need ng job offer. Sa WA under schedule 1 ako kaya hindi na kailangan ng job offer.. intayin ko lang vetassess tas sa WA na ako.. try ko din pumunta sa Hobart if i'm back in AU na..

    Good day!

    I am a preschool teacher from the Philippines and I am being offered a sponsorship to work in Hobart, Tasmania. However, my partner isn't too keen in moving there because we don't know anyone from Hobart (our relatives are in Melbourne) and some people discourage us to move there because they claim that people living there are predominantly white communities. Can you give us an idea on what it is like living in Tasmania for Filipinos? Are Filipinos there prone to discriminations? And how is your relationships with the locals living there?

    We hope we could get your insights about this. Thank you so much and God bless!
