For Accountants - how long did it take you to get a job?
@rolf021 - hi there! i was blessed to get a 3-month contract after about a week from landing. i sent online applications a month before my flight and tinawagan ako ng headhunters tapos nagschedule ng personal interview sa week ng pagdating namin sa Oz. After 3 months, ginawa akong permanent sa work. Still with the company now, 1 year na ako and looking forward to more years
Hi, I am a newbie here and planning to process our PR for Australia. I would like to know your profession please? I a bit concern about mine, I am a CPA working in Dubai as Fixed Asset Accountant/Cash Accountant but definitely not yet qualified as CPA in AU's standard. What do you think is my chance in finding a job in AU?
Thank you so much

@crizzy if your looking for a job in AU while overseas, slim chances. most of us here applied for permanent visa in order to live and work in AU. First thing mag take ka ng English test. tapos pa assess mo ang employment mo at bachelor degree, if assessment is positive pede kana apply sa portal nila ng expression of interest.

Hello, ask ko LNG Kung may nag try na magenroll sa accounting training or internship sa seed accounting group or platinum acctng? I'm looking for other option to gain experience until now di Parin ako successful in finding acctng job
@janine0511 as long as you get the local experience go for it. I think it really boils down to three things:
a. How you present yourself in resume and cover letter b. How you communicate during interviews (so essential) c. Your past experience as an added value to the organization (do not neglect this, just because its not Aussie experience)
Wish you all the best!

Hi all! I'm still waiting for my visa but i thought i could share here what the sister of my son's pedia who's also an accountant in oz shared to me. They moved there since around 10 years ago and advised me that when i get there, i should be willing to take on odd jobs because this "may" count as local experience. Because what the employers are particular there more than the skills which may be more or less the same for all, is CHARACTER REFERENCE. That's why you need someone who will refer you or someone they can contact to ask about how your working attitude is. References are important to them and my friend having been on the side of employer already and now connected with a government office said they always contact your previous employer for character check, which in the case if you worked an odd job, your supervisor at that time. So maybe good to disclose odd jobs worked locally in your application/resume. I hope everybody gets their dream jobs (and grant for me) soon.
