I'm having difficulty finding a job.

iamkris · September 2019

Hello po, dito na po ako Brisbane and currently looking for work. One month na po akong nghahanap pero wala pa rin pong tumatawag. May tumawag po pero as Food Processor (Full Time). Nagbago po isip ko at di na ako umattend ng training baka kasi may biglang tumawag sa linya ko . Ano po bang magandang gawin kpag ganito? If mag try ako ng ibang work, ano po ba ok n work sa Brisbane? Mahirap daw po kasi sa factory. Meron po ba dito malapit sa Brisbane?

If you have money it’s okay to wait for the right job.

I moved here 12years ago with only $200 on pocket. Worked in labour jobs the following weekend to have money while applying for engineering job. After 2 months, I got an engineering job and the rest is history.
I met lots of pinoy (like dentist, nurse,IT manager, Bznes manager, Accntant at madami pang iba) na nagwowork sa warehouse. Happy naman sila at kontento sa work so hnd na sila naghanap sa linya nila. Yun ibang pinoy may crab mentality sasabihin sa iyo hindi mo mapapraktis un profession mo dito or hindi ka makakakuha ng work sa linya mo. They pull you down.

Goodluck everyone.

Sobrang agree dito. try niyo humanap ng work na inline sa resume niyo at sa experience niyo. lahat naman tayo andito to get a financial gain. kung kukuha ka ng ibang job, medyo step down yan. goal mo dapat, kung ano work mo sa pinas, yun din work mo dito para mas malaki pera. unless you want to reinvent yourself and ayaw mo talaga nung previous work experience mo. sayang kasi yung pera and oppurtunity if kukuha ka ng sobrang mas mababa compared sa work mo sa pinas. sobrang mas mababang job title ha. 2-3 levels down, ok pa yan. on track ka pa din to get your previous job title pag ganun.

Para saken , hndi tlga problema kng hndi ka agad mkk work sa line mo at me iba iba nmn nkk work agad tlaga. Iba iba kasi , pero nniwala padn ako pag gusto mo i-pursue ang isang bagay ay maraming paraan. saka iwasan sumama or makipag usap sa mga tao na pahihinain loob mo at hhilahin ka lang pbaba.

jaceejoef · October 2019

@iamkris sa Adelaide South Australia po ako.

maguero · October 2019

More than 1 month na ako sa Adelaide. Naghahanap ako ng kahit part-time job habang tuloy pa rin pag-aapply sa occupation ko. Meron bang may alam kung paano makapasok sa factory work gaya ng Balfours na packing, etc?

dorbsdee · October 2019

Just want to share...
Awa po ng Dios, landed a job same role and same industry within six weeks...
I've got the offer in a month since arrival and was so excited sa 1st day, parang 1st day high...
Hehehehehe... naalala ko ang mga ngiti ko na halos umabot hanggang tainga habang nasa tren..
All ay dahil sa pinoyau... and syempre... did my homework...
Ang nkatulong ng malaki saken ay ang OBP --> https://www.obpaustralia.com.au/
Marami na akong pinagtanungan na professional service like ACECIS, tribus lingua, at Naishadh Gadani to name a few, and I did the free consultation, but I ended up with OBP... personal choice.

Nagbayad ako ng AUD 600 and ginawa ko sya habang wala pa ako dito sa Melbourne, mga 3 months before coming here... at yun, nagbunga naman...
Ang ginawa ko reason ay kung makakanap lang din naman ako ng work ng mabilis like in advance as 2 or 3 weeks, sulit na ang AUD 600, kasi ang weekly expenses namin when we came here ay AUD 500...

So... suggestion ko lang po kung maiiconsider nyo to consult with professional na talagang may experience at magbayad sa service nila... ay makakatulong po... yung lang...
GOODLUCK po sa lahat ng mga nagplaplan ng BM at mga nagjo-jobhunt...

Processing time will not change regardless kong galing ka na Australia. Sa paghahahnap ng work depends on your skills din.

Hello Everyone. Anyone from here who is working already in Australia as Lab Scientist ? I would just like to know how is the working environment there and possible difficulties in job hunting for a Med Lab Scientist position?
Thank you

Megger · December 2019

Musta na lahat. Ano kaya impression ng mga employers dito regarding job hopping. Nakadalawang job na kasi akong full time. Ngayon Im again considering looking for another job. Nakailang job na ba kayo?

Im on my second job after 6 months on the first when I arrived. I wasn't happy sa una kaya I moved on.

Megger · December 2019

@batman, oo nga, I moved on the third month of my first job. Out of line kasi talaga. Now Im on my third month na sa 2nd job, pero I feel moving na rin dahil sa work environment. Concern lang ako sa impact on my resume. Magandang info din tong ganitong case sa mga forum members na starting a career dito sa Oz.

Honestly, i think ok lang to. I am on my second job in 2yrs siguro. wife ko naman is on her third. normal sa AU yung palipat lipat ng work. even my boss ang payo sa akin, instead na mag antay ng promotion, dapat open ka lagi lumipat. mas mabilis ka aangat. ganun ata culture dito. i am sure ok lang yang gagawin mo

alyssa_anilao · December 2019
