Ahhhhh, I see. The diff in salaries is as much as $10 thou less per yr in Melb . We have been to Perth and have friends there so we have an idea of costs there, I really thought Melb would be more expensive for everything Thanks : )

Hi, does anyone know why Melb wages are lower than say Perth wages for the same job and grade? Can every state dictate their own salary ranges? Cheers in advance xxx

Thanks for your reply, really appreciate it. We thought it was too good to be true aswell. cheers

Good morning everyone. Just wondering if anyone else has heard this.... MY OH and I went to a jobs expo in the UK and attended a seminar by WA gov about state sponsorship. The guys said that as of 1 July this yr 2012, the rules have changed, among the changes were you could nominate an occupation on their list for sponsorship even if you havent any exp in that job. So my question is that if my OH completed his plumbing quals (to what level i dont know NVQ3?) would be able to nom that occupation even though he has never worked as a plumber! Also he wouldnt actually have to that job in WA just live and work in WA for 2 yrs. This is what we understood from the expo can anyone clarify this for me? Thanks in advance Berries x:unsure:
