  • Agree with @wallaby, by the way. Australia has one of the best system in terms of how they treat their medical people. Doctors, nurses, dentist, pharmacist, etc. I don't think KSA can offer the same level of independence, freedom, concession. Ex., y…

  • @merc2013, hahaha. That is probably how much the senior registrar in our unit earns. Or a GP in a rural area. . Hehehe. Some are definitely earning more. But entry-levels, generally not. Yung pomsinoz kasi, people posting there are British, aren't t…

  • No worries @merc2013. I submitted one-month cover. Tapos, tinuloy ko na lang dito.
    in Medical Soon Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • Yup, DIAC requires 457 appliants to take out private health insurance. And kahit approve na visa mo, you will need to maintain it actually for the duration of your 457 because we cannot access medicare yet habang temporary resident pa lang. Having s…
    in Medical Soon Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • I personally think visa medicals po, @merc2013. Kasi the most important thing is getting you into the country po eh. So, pag may visa na, madali na lang yung ibang paperworks, like pre-employment medicals, etc. Tanggap na naman kayo sa trabaho, it…

  • Hi Nadine. All my medical will be shouldered by the company. Swerte ko wala ako gastos, hopefully kasama na airfare tsaka 1 month accommodation. Job is related sa railway. Galing ako sa LRT dati... Hello merc2013, malamang kasama yun. Sa 457, sa…

    in Airfare - Manila to Australia (One Way) Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • Hi beth! Yup, buhay pa rin. Hehe. I'm almost on my 3rd month at work. Up for evaluation na ako, ugh! And exams. Hay buhay. Yung exams namin are equivalent to your certifications, I think. Non-stop certification nga ang Australia! Eto nga, kakatapo…
    in Finding a Job ; Australia VS Pinas VS Singapore Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • Nung nakapag trabaho na ako, dun ko po na-realize kung bakit. Andaming qualified. In my workplace, more than half puti. But more importantly, UK or aussie-trained sila. Natanggap lang ako even without those experience kasi may umalis. Also, I think …

    in Finding a Job ; Australia VS Pinas VS Singapore Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • Expect to: 1. House-hunt 2. Work adjustment (feeling ko, aabutan pa ako 6 months to adjust to work climate) 3. pagkuha ng mga tax number, medicare provider/prescriber number, professional registration and licensing, etc. 4. opening bank accounts, c…

  • Hi guys, Question: Can you apply/look for a job while on TV? Hello po! I suppose you can try. But I doubt they will hire you po eh on that visa. I'm not sure if may nakagawa na nito. Those on student visa, pwede. TV po, generally not. Not lega…

  • Oh. The implication being that because we are cheaper labor, we are not par. hmmm.
    in I'm having difficulty finding a job. Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • I agree, redneck comment nga hehe. Yup, I heard from the news a few days ago about Aussie employment. Well, if hindi nila tayo kailangan, bakit patuloy pa rin sila hiring of foreign talent di ba? It's just that they need us, they really do. Which is…

    in Private Health Care Insurance Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • At least dito sa Aus, it doesn't matter what your age or race is, salary is fair! Uhm, there has been a recent topic on the news that men are paid more than women. Another point, there are more men in the upper management position than women her…

    in Has anyone tried to contact the leasing agent for apartments prior going to Australia? Comment by Nadine March 2013
  • I beg to disagree. Nope, not in my experience po. Mas ok po talaga kita ko dito mga pips kahit mas konti gastos ko dun! Sobrang daming factors kung mas makakaipon or hindi. It still depends on the lifestyle you're living, the job you have, even th…
