If there’s anyone interested in a fully furnished room for $150 per wk (inclusive of utilities except water) available by mid of February 2013, please pm or email me at [email protected]. It’s located in Northfield SA. 15-20 minutes away by bus from the CDB area. The bus stop is just right in front of the house, with 3 options of buses available (bus interval is only 15 minutes during weekdays). The spacious room has a built in closet, queen size bed, computer table & chair, cabinets, dresser. Pinoy housemates and landlord are all friendly and easy to get along with!
Many thanks!

Hi mga kabayan. need your help, im looking for a temporary accommodation on the 1st week of March. we're a couple from Melbourne and moving to Adelaide due to a job offer. mga 1-2 months term po. we will pay weekly rent. please pm me or text me at 0408237075 kung may alam kayo. thanks in advance.
@Ria Hi Ria, pwede mo rin kaya ako matulungan to at least makahanap ng part time job? I'm a software developer by profession pero hanggang ngayon di pa rin sinuswerte makahanap ng work.. Any part time job would do for now. Salamat ng marami!
Hello! Just arrived in Adelaide last week, March 12. I'm an analyst programmer. Just like the rest, I am looking for any job (part time, contract etc) muna while waiting for the right job. I would appreciate any help from the group. @ria baka meron pang part time job kang alam. I am also interested to meet Filipino friends. Saan ba kayo naghahang out? I live in Glenelg North.

additional question, musta po ang job market ngayon jan...I am an Electronics Engineer had experience in semiconductor/manufacturing company sa Pinas and Construction (Installation and Commissioning) dito sa Dubai...nagtry na rin ako magapply sa seek pero konti lng nakita ko...
hi, sobrang helpful nitong thread lalo na sa kagaya namin na walang kamag-anak sa adelaide. Marami kayong naibibigay na insights para sa mga nag apply ng SS sa SA.
Tanong ko lang, madali lang ba makahanap ng work dyan sa telecom at yung wife ko naman ay sa cardiac.
Ok lang kaya na wag muna kaming mag resign sa work namin dito sa saudi tapos mag entry muna kami ng AU kung halimbawa ma grant ang visa at may IED na. Salamat sa mga replies.
