Hi, we put our EOI in over Christmas and got an invite on 6th Jan. Visa granted 24th April so it only took 4 months. Have you got a CO yet? Worth e-mailing them if you have got one. Good luck, hope you hear something soon

Interview went really well and I found out this morning that I got the job!! :-)

That's what we've read - Matthew Hill area is nicest part I think??

Thanks for the advice. I hope they don't ask me who the secretary of health is! I've been looking at the hospital's annual report which has their mission and values in

ah, thank you. Good luck if you do go for a move to Oz

Thanks a lot for the advice!

Thank you. Are you going to work in the UK for a bit before you go to Oz?

By "challenging" do you mean social problems? From what I've read on the internet Sunshine is an area that is getting better. Rental prices are reasonable

Thank you. Are you a midwife too? Where are you hoping to move to?

Thanks for your reply. Are you a midwife from the UK? I have a PR visa already so don't need sponsorship. I'm not sure what guidelines Australian units use - do they follow NICE or another organisation? My last interview was over 4 years ago but I got asked about supervision, clinical governance, obstetric emergencies. Should I expect something similar? Thanks very much. Where do you work now?

I have my first phone interview next week for a job as a midwife in Sunshine (near Melbourne). If anyone has any tips on what to read or what I might get asked i'd really appreciate it. I have no idea what I'll be asked. I've heard that nurse/midwife interviews are less than formal than here. Also, if anyone knows Sunshine hospital or works there i'd love to hear what you think about it. Thanks so much!

Thanks for your reply. I think we have decided against taking the car - Michelle

Thanks and good luck with your application! I don't know how to creat a signature either?? What do you do? I'm a midwife and my registration is taking longer to come through than the visa has!
