Thanks so much for the reply - really helpful to hear the experiences of others ? Will invest time in connecting with recruiters on LinkedIn...my impression is that nobody will bite until onshore however will try my luck! if anyone has experience of the contact vs perm demand that would also be really helpful?? thanks again + best wishes!!!

Hi All, first post here so please be gentle :) Recently received my 190 NSW visa under 261313 software engineer with a first entry date of 16/10/2018 - woop! My background is 9 years software development/technical consultancy (java,.Net, oracle, etc) within financial services. I will be looking for a similar technical team lead type role from October.... Is there is a big contractor market in Sydney like London? Or are perm roles more common?? Reading the thread it also seems recruiters/networking when arriving onshore is the best bet?? Any experiences and advice in the job hunt space very much appreciated.... Best wishes ?
