Guys, job market is really weak in Australia... what paid-off in my case is hardwork, diversify your skill.. think outside of the box...
no official job offer yet but company asked for references then job offer... still keeping my fingers crossed.

i realized na kung mag aantay ako ng SAP basis job magugutom ako dito.. so i explored yung ibang capacity ko.. i'm SAP basis level 2/3 support pero i marketed my level 1 helpdesk knowledge too as entry level para ma penetrate ko ang Infra Support..
in other words, career change ako dito dahil alam ko walang future ang SAP basis.. i chose to start at entry level then maybe after a year pwede na ako mag senior role as infra support
with that i had once interview every week as in...
advice ko is diversity your skills..
hardwork and luck will definitely help you succeed

Tanong ko lang kung ano na anglagay ng job market ngayon sa AUS? I am a 476 visa holder and planning to arrive to Perth on Feb. Okay bang job hunting month ang Feb? 2 years lang kasi ang experience ko kaya nagwoworry ako kung malaki ba chance kong makakuha agad ng work dun. My background is drilling pala. Thank you.
