Adeel Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Hi all, I am a PCB designer with over 5 years of experience recently I got 176 visa and has planned to arrive in Feb'2012. But the disturbing factor is I didn't find any job related to Printed Circuits in Adelaide. So could somebody let me know the recruiting Agency/Agencies that are related to PCB work or names of the companies that are involved in this business since I have tried almost all website like seek, carrerone, jobrapido and many more... but no luck. Finally could you guys please advice if I can find odd job to run my initial expenditure and by what approx time I can get it after my arrival, your advice would be valuable for me to plan my future course. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life on easy street Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I am an Electronics Test Engineer. It can be extremely tough to get into the Electronics Industry in Australia. I would not say this for many of the other trades Construction etc but the Electronics Manufacturing Industry. If at all possible get interview’s lined up before you leave a secure job in the U.K. It was very tough for me in 2007 but since the GFC the number of jobs in the Electronics Industry fell off a cliff. Adelaide is really not the best state for electronics manufacturing industry. There should be more opportunities in Melbourne. You could try job agency : http://www.australiawide.com.au/ At least they replied to my job applications even if the answer was no. Which is more than I can say for a lot of other job agencies. I am not saying don’t move to Australia just be very careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatieQuintos Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hi Adeel, I'm a PCB designer too and i'm hoping you could tell me what ANZCODE you used for our occupation for assessment? Is it Electronic Engineering Draftsperson - 312411? Any tips how you did the CDR? Have you landed a PCB job there now? Thank you! Cheers, Kat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
