There is no harm in applying now!! But you MUST get your CV sorted out to Australian spec. Try; www.seek.com.au for further info. on your CV. Failing that, PM me, and I will send you mine, so you get an idea. Aircon

I started to send my CV over after visa grant as the majority of jobs in my sector require permanent residency to be granted. I then went through the oz phone book and sent them my CV and introduced myself as well as registering with tons of agencies, who cant activate my CV until I land and they see me in person (for some reason). I had quite a few employers say, give us a shout when you land though. But I suppose its broken me in for the rejection side of job applications, not experienced that in years!! Need to update my CV again now. What field are you in Batman?? |
