Talking G'day poms!

Hi guys, i've been directed here by a friend of mine as i'm in the early stages of making the BIG MOVE SOUTH!

I currently work in the rail industry and i'm applying for maintenance jobs based in Perth.
Why Perth? I've not been to Oz but I have family on the eastern side and many friends have travelled the great country and the general concensus is that Perth is the city of choice to live in.


As I've already said, it's in the ealry stage ie. CV with companies and awaiting interviews. The current climate looks good for rail transport employees, hence my optimism!!!

I look forward to hearing all your views on this great adventure that sooooo many of you have undertaken.

Hi There,

Just wanted to welcome you to PIO. Sorry can't help with your questions but am sure there will be some other member who can.

Wishing you all the best,
Nikci

Hi
Welcome t POI ! Hope you can get all the answers you want on here. I lived in Perth for 12 months in 1981 and loved it but I prefer the eastern states and we are hoping to go to Melbourne next March. Just got our visas so have to sell the house now!

Good luck !

Les
