Guest Lula Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 When I get a local number I will send it to you for when you arrive. David, it wasn't easy to say the least he was let down twice by a company after the offer due to projects being shelved. We were just about to apply for a PR visa ourselves when this came up so now heading over on a 457. You just have to be patient which I know is the worst thing to hear when you just want to get there. What job are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lula Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 David mentioned it the hubby he is not sure how the recruitment works for ground staff but he has said when he is there he will find out for you and maybe point you in the right direction:-) He has registered on here last night will have to find out his username still:-) Have you looked at the company websites sometimes they will have a recruitment day in the UK? And I think that Leightons have opened a recruitment office for OZ in London:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
