Hi everyone, Looks like it might be Melbourne not cairns or Townsville for our move from Brisbane. I have an interview for The Alfred hospital next week, so if offered this job then will take it. Have been told that Queensland health have financial issues with cutbacks and probably better to take job in victoria if offered rather than wait for Queensland job. Need to get something quick as on a 457 and things not worked out for me with this employer (no names mentioned) have had a bad experience with bullying and basically been forced out of my job after moving here with my family only 6 months ago. It's been a nightmare, have to children,age 16 and 11,the 16 year old now not going to school as doesn't know what is happening.Basically if I don,t get another sponsor in 28 days then we will be deported. My husband has one work with an agency, but not guaranteed. If I had to come to oz agin I would obtain my PR before arriving, this means that you ate not at the mercy of an employer and if things don,t work out as with myself then you can just move on and have more security.
Anyway that's enough of my bad news, although would e interested to hear from other 457 visaholdersin a similar position ie job not worked out, what happened etc?
On a happier note, if I do get this position at the Alfred, are there any nurses working there who can tell that it is a friendly place to work, and also suburbs with a good high schools and family friendly within 30 mins drive fron the hospital?
Would be good to her from anyone adjust want to settle somewhere and put some roots down, for the kids sake
