    pag may interview ba dapat nka-formal talaga or ok na smart casual? :)

    Smart Casual is fine. Also check the company website, sometimes they post marketing stuff specially employee testimonials. You can check their dress code from that.

    @benztf some tips I could recommend:

    1. Brush up your CV in Australian format that is brief in format (2-3 pages only)
    2. Network with same level of profession to gain colleagues as you are
    3. Gain local experience mean time. You could volunteer in your area/community to start
    4. Take online skill cards or study on line quick courses to upskill yourself to job market
    5. I highly recommend to gain your full state driving license. Really an advantage.
    6. PRAYERS, cling on HIM above always.

    I am as same as you are - a PR status when I arrived (here in WA, Perth). :)

    @jedh_g maraming salamat sa tips. Im currently revising nga again my cv. May nabasa kc ako regarding Applicant Tracking System used ng mga recruiters. I'll take bote of your other suggestions.
    Regarding sa quick courses, dapat ba na sa big universities kunin, like rmit? Im thinking kc of taking elecrrician course pero ang tagal matapos, 2 yrs. :(

    @benztf well education here in AU is an investment. If you think you're currently fall short of the needed qualification for a certain job, as long as you had the cash for enrolment explore mo din

    Hi Guys!

    Can anyone be kind enough to send me a copy of their CV for Australian Market? You canerase personal details. Please po. Ang hirap makakuha ng trabaho ng walang magandang format according to a lot of people. Salamat in advance!

    Thanks,

    @sheryl11 Naghihigpit kasi sila ngayon sa Aged Care facilities. Few yrs back tumatanggap pa sila ng walang Au Cert but because of the recent happenings they’re stricter. You can always call and speak with the manager, maybe highlight your Sg experience and see what they tell you. Tiyaga lang and always try. Hopefully may magbigay ng chance sayo.
