IT in SA

raiden14 · August 2013

For IT peeps based in Adelaide who are still looking for jobs, you might want to send inquiries to Karen Detablan of Peoplebank. They are recruiting for IT professionals. She is a friend of mine and currently working as a Recruitment Consultant with Peoplebank. Here is her email address: [email protected] .

Hehe sikat na talaga si Karen sa group namin lagi namemention yan ni @adelaide_boi haha

First I'm not an IT person, so I shouldn't be posting here. lol
But my housemate is in IT, she got an IT job in less than a month, then in less than 3 months she was able to find another better IT job.

I agree with @emjdee and nylram_1981 that timing and luck.
But I would like to add, flexibility and relevant certifications like ITIL, windows 7 or 8 etc.
And also the people you know, who know people.

@ raiden14 @nylram_1981, @Ren, para sa akin tyaga rin ang puhunan dito sa SA. for example wala pang naka advertise na job na line of work mo, then look for another job na medyo related saka mag apply pag nag advertise na talaga sila dun sa line mo. Isa rin kasing factor yung "local experience" na laging hinahanap ng mga employers, so while waiting at nakakuha ng work kahit hindi dun sa linya mo eh you are already gaining the "local experience".

Just finished my first week on my new job since arriving 2 months ago. Tiyaga lang sa pag-apply and most impt pray lang at darating din ang breakthrough na hinahanap natin. Naka-ilang interview din pero sa mga agency lang. Habang naghihintay ng breakthrough kumuha na kayo ng SA license para kung sakaling malayo ang location handa na kayo. Pray lang pray mga kapatid.

ruelcortez_BH · November 2013

Sorry naputol po comment, am saying us if I migrate there with my wife and 2 kids, we can at least survivive for 2 months with no source of income, but hopefully we can find a job there during those initial periods. Mahirap din kasi ....lam nyo na...

palkoopz · November 2013

Share ko lang some tips sa mga job hunters

- Wag masyado umasa sa mga job sites like seek.com. If you will notice, nde ganong kadami ang IT job openings dito sa SA.
- Try to search for local companies here in SA and go to there website para dun kayo mag-apply. Usually they advertise job openings sa website nila. Wag masyado magfocus sa mga IT companies lang. Try nyo lang search "companies in adelaide" or "list of companies in adelaide".
- Create your own linkedin account. Make sure andun lahat ng specialties nyo.
- Pag meron na kyong account try to search for agents here in Adelaide and then connect to them. Usually agents ang magcoconnect sa inyo directly pagmeron kang skills na hinahanap nila.

Good luck sa inyo and God bless!!!

buhayin ko lang to, ask ko if may IT ba sa SA na sobrang nahirapan maghanap ng work?

kremitz · July 2014

@raiden14 nasa oz kana? Diba tester kadin?hehe

raiden14 · July 2014

@kremitz - wala pa ako visa hehe.
Nagretake ako ng ielts at sinuwerte para umabot sa points required.
Kaso nagdadalawang isip ako sa SA kahit mabilis magprocess kasi dami kong nabasa nahirapang maghanap ng work kahit IT ang field.

raiden14 · July 2014

@kremitz - sys ad po ako. specific for application support ng Dynamics Ax.

kremitz · July 2014

Umm kulang kpa sa points @raiden14? Umm pag it po ang alam k melbourne o sydney yung madami opportunities eh. Lam ko sa SA onti lng ata eh. If mka 60pts kn then go for visa 189 nlng para kht saan ka pwede

moonwitchbleu · July 2014

@raiden14 I believe your occupation is listed in CSOL, don't worry kasi if nasa list naman ang occupation mo sa isang state for sure may work naman siguro na mahahanap sa state na yun. Kaya nga diba may ibang occupations na sa CSOL lang kasi sa mge certain states mas needed ang occupation na yun. I have a friend who is a software test engineer sa SA cya,naka hanap naman cya nang work dun. Have faith lang talaga and pray lang kayo.
