Hi everyone, Need advice about job prospects for a chemistry teacher in Melbourne. I have been granted 189 visa, have completed NQT year in UK and worked as a supply/relief due to lack of permanent roles, but don't enjoy supply work. What are the prospects for getting full time or part time work in Melbourne / outer suburbs? thanks

Hi I would like to transition into a career in HR. I have already had visa 189 granted and am going to be moving to Melbourne. I was wondering if anyone had advice on the best way to go about it. I understand that I will need to start as a HR Assistant and then work myself up. Any advice greatly appreciated. thanks Grace5

Thanks Rossco2810 - great to know, takes the pressure off if teaching jobs are hard to secure. Cheers!

Hi Thanks Itegoa and Verystormy for the info, great to know, takes the pressure off if teaching jobs are hard to secure. cheers!

Hi Just wondering if anyone can help with this question: if someone who is a teacher has a 189 granted and can't secure full employment, can they do some other job in the meantime e.g. an admin job or some job as a gap filler - is that permitted on a 189 visa? Sorry if. This seems like a stupid question, just would like to know in case of worst case... thanks

Thanks Wolvesaussie for sharing your (& your girlfriend's) experience. Yes, I guess I am feeling the pressure at moment. It's always the same with advertised jobs, in UK too, often they are just going through the motions, when they already have someone lined up. It's frustrating though. Just got to keep looking and hoping, although I suspect I may need a back-up plan, just to earn some money until I secure something full-time/regular. I think you're right though, it will be worth it.

Hi I am new to this thread and was wondering if anyone has advice about Chemistry/Science teaching in the Melbourne area? I am have been granted PR and am the main visa applicant and main breadwinner... Thanks

Low mileage helps its cause. Only bring it if you're attached to it and it has treated you well so far! Thanks for that, she has treated us well so it looks like she'll be moving to Brisbane with us! thanks Grace5
