I just lodged my 190 visa 2 weeks ago and prior to that I got 2 job offers, one in NT and the other one in SA. I only submitted my skills assessment and resume thats it.

maguero · November 2019

Nakakuha ako ng work after 9 weeks sa Adelaide. Nasa line of work ko talaga yung nakuha ko na full time job. Tyagaan lang talaga sa pag-aapply at wag panghihinaan ng loob maski ang daming rejections. Yung ibang makikilala dito will be very encouraging pero meron din mamemeet na medyo nega. Wag magpapadala sa mga ganun. Basta confident ka sa skills mo and masipag mag-apply sa job openings. Sa tingin ko aside from customizing the CV importante rin na magprepare for the interview para hindi kabado at fluent ang pagsagot sa mga tanong.

ali0522 · November 2019

@maguero ano po usually interview questions? same po ba sa pinas yung pagiinterview? sobrang formal po ba? ano po attire nyo during interview as in coat and tie?

maguero · November 2019

@ali0522 Mas relaxed yung mga interviews dito. Usually may 3 parts yung interviews - kailangan mo idiscuss how your skills address the main requirements for the position, tapos may situational-behavioral questions, tapos tatanungin ka if you have questions.

For the first part, I suggest i-save mo yung job ads para pag nainvite ka for interview pwede mong aralin yung ad ulit and practice mo kung paano mo ieexplain how your skills can address the requirements.

For the second part, Google mo lang common behavioral interview questions and practice answering them. For example tatanungin ka Can you tell me about a time that you handled a project that didn't go as planned, how did you handle the situation?

Pag tinanong ka if you have any questions make sure you ask. Magprepare ka ng mga pwede itanong. It shows you're interested in the company.

Depende siguro yung attire sa company. Wala akong napuntahan na naka coat and tie. Pants and long sleeves lang.

Hi po sa mga members on this thread. Will be having my big move this Feb 28. Just want to open up I feel discouraged kasi I am applying here sa Ph for a job position in which 90% suits my credential for the job opening from a Tier 1 Transportation Consultancy Firm in NSW. I am a Highway Engineer by profession po and already had two major highway projects locally in NSW (though I am based sa Ph while on the project). Iniisip ko po ano kaya ang mali at di parin ako tinatawagan nung company? Mejo nakakapanghina lang ng loob. Sobrang laking factor ba talaga na wala ka pa sa Oz mismo?

cutiepie25 · March 2020

Gaano po Kahirap at katagal maghanap ng trabaho sa Melbourne as a Software engineer? I will be moving there po via 189 PR

mahirap pag wala kang au number and address mo is hindi au. ganyan din ginawa ko nun. wala din tumawag sa akin. i arrived in au ng oct. oct-nov medy nag bakasyon muna ko to et to know the counrty. nov nag hanap na ulit ako work, online lang din. dec may work na ko. pero since shut down yung between christmas and new year, january ako pinag start. i can not say if madali mag hanap ng trabaho dito, pero i can say, mas mahirap if wala ka pa dito. normally kasi, yung initial call is sa hr. puro phone call yan. so far sa akin, yung skype calls, sa mga work visa sponsorship application. good luck sa yo. hindi siya madali, pero kaya naman. o naka hanap ka na? if nakahanap ka na, congrats.

robbiebusiness · March 2020

Base sa experienced ko eh madaling matanggap sa mga restaurant at hotel, continous hiring nga halos ang lahat ng pinagtrabahuhan ko dati na mga restaurant. Parating nangangailan ng food server, cook, kitchen hand pati na din restaurant manager. Yong isa kong pinagtrabahuhan dati nagbibigay ng incentives sa makakapag refer ng new employees na tatagal ng at least six months sa company. Nag apply ako dati mga online pero mas effective yong walk-in mag apply dahil instantly eh makakapagdecide kaagad ang employer base sa first impression nya sa yo.
Maalwan ang buhay pag dito sumsweldo sa Australia, every week eh may sweldo. Hindi pa nababawasan yong sweldo last week eh may sweldo na naman. Pero kung nasa Pilipinas pa ako eh nalaman ko yang mga online business katulad nito http://bit.ly/2wVQrfI eh malamang hindi na ako nakapag Australia.

Hi @MikeYanbu
Salamat sa information. Matagal naka-pala dyan sa Australia..
Take note ko yung Melbourne, Sydney and Bisbane na cities. Kaso hindi ako Visa 189, masyadong mataas ang invite score. Nasa Visa 190, 491 ako.

Wytm · May 2020

Hello.
I read mga comments here and I saw mas OK makahanap ng work if nandyan na sa AU right?
I'm really a beginner and plans to work in Australia. I'm in sg but my contract will end this month so il babalik na ko ng Pinas next month.

Ask ko lang, if ever I try to go AU and look for job as walk in, kahit gaano katagal mag stay pwede?
San din pala mag stay? If wala akong relatives dyan?

maguero · May 2020

@Wytm Malabong makahanap ng trabaho kung walk-in ka & wala kang visa na may work rights. Kung pupunta ka rito on a tourist visa, wala yung work rights so malamang hindi ka ieentertain ng employers. Ang usual options to live and work here are the skilled immigrant visas (189, 190, 491), work visa (482), and student visa. I suggest you read up on them sa AU Department of Home Affairs website and then decide ano mas pwede sa iyo. May mga threads dito for each of those visa options as well.

hi, my boyfriend and i are planning to work and migrate in aus. mga 3 years na rin kami. upon consultation sa isang agency, pasado siya for 190 visa and ako ang dependent niya. pero yung agency kasi na yun, sila na magprovide ng job offer sakanya. pinagiisipan namin if kuhanin namin kasi medyo malaki yung bayad or tyagain nalang namin mag-apply. hmm.

Depending on which state ka mag aapply required ang job offer. If that agency can find you a company that will offer you a job then ok but i guess at a price.

actually medyo pricey nga siya. if yun kuhanin namin, we need to save pa for our pocket and budget money pag nandun na. though yung offer ni agency is meron ng lodging, ayusin rin nila mga medicare, tax identification, bank accounts. but upon checking and researching kasi, kaya naman daw gawin yun on our own. parang babayaran lang namin yung peace of mind namin.

sa mga experienced po sa aus, hindi naman mahirap magasikaso ng bank account, medicare, tax? thank you.

Yung medicare, tax at bank account, kailangan yun personal na inaasikaso e. Tska sobrang dali lang. Pwede ba sila ang magasikaso nun? Anong agency sya? At magkano? Tignan nyo nalang mabuti kung legit yun agency.
