I'm really glad you found my post and we would love to meet you when you arrive. Once you're here we can exchange numbers etc. it sounds like you both have good careers, I'm sure I've seen a few welding jobs (my brother is a welder so the jobs stood out to me). Yes, we have also been a bit torn between choosing between Nowra with more job opportunities, or Batemans bay where it's just so beautiful and friendly. We have both been offered jobs in Nowra but not found anything permanent in Batemans bay as yet. It's a tricky decision but I think we are going to keep trying in Batemans bay for a bit as its still early days. Seek.com.au is the best website for work as far as I can tell. Apparently gumtree is good too but I havnt had any luck myself. Looking forward to to meeting you and your family once you arrive.

Hello, well I'm still new here and finding my feet but if there's anything I can do to help then let me know. It's beautiful here and everyone is so friendly. What's your line of work? Im a teacher and my boyfriend is an electrician and we are still trying to find permanent work. Just having casual work at the moment to start us off. Depending on what you do, there is probably more job opportunists further north, but in my opinion I'd like to try and stay here and search for work as I love the area so much.

Hello, great to hear from you! How exciting that you'll also be coming to Batemans Bay! We've been here just two weeks so still early days. But it's beautiful and met lots of friendly people who are all keen to help. Yes we had the regional state sponsorship visa. Are you coming out alone or with someone? Definitely get in touch when you arrive and we can meet up if you like? X

That's Really helpful. Thank you so much! Best wishes for 2016. Xxx

That's really good advice. Thank you. Does.anyone know of the best job search websites? Or agencies to help find work? X

Ok, thank you. Ill definitely start looking in to it. Any suggestions on best ways to job hunt online? Websites etc? Job alerts?

Ok thank you, thats really good to know and helps a lot. Are Moruya and Ulladulla bigger than Batemans bay, regarding shops, jobs etc? 30 minutes isnt too far really to look for jobs and travel, certainly doable! lol. Those two places may even be in our catchment area where we could look in to. Are you still living in Australia? xx

Thanks for your reply, it sounds really nice. Unfortunately were were given restrictions on where we could live and we havnt actaully been to Batemans Bay before, so we can only follow peoples recommendations and what we can search for online. It sounds like a good starting point anyway and I really hope I can make friends in the community. Im a teacher, so I think Ill start lookign for work over the next month and put some feelers out. Id be more than happy to work in a preschool to start and Ive looked online and think there is one in Batemans Bay. Is there anywhere quite local to the area that may have more work opportunities or that is more built up at all?

Hi, thanks for your reply, we are going to start job hunting early January and get in touch with a few places. We already have a house sorted so we are getting excited. I'm hoping to join in with things in the community to meet people. are there any volunteer groups or social events going on in the area? Thanks for your message. X

Hello everyone, we are moving to Batemans Bay in March 2016 and just wondered if anyone is emmigrating at a similar time, or if anyone has moved in to this area recently and has any advice for us? It would be lovely to meet other people that are also emmigrating to NSW to get in touch and share ideas either before moving out there or once we arrive. If anyone has recently emmigrated to the Batemans Bay area and would like to get in contact that would be really nice. It would be great to know someone out there before making the big move! Eeek! Look forward to hearing from you, Thank you, x L x
