mw291073 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 In general, what are the best months to arrive and land some work? I am hearing reports that July & August are best because the tax year starts on 1st July - is this true? I'm specifically looking for IT work, personally. Thanks in Advance!

Drumbos79 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hi I recently spoke with an agency from Melbourne and she said it is generally dead between September and February! Half the year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chortlepuss Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Basically avoid November to feb. Good advice. Nothing happens over the Xmas wind down and subsequent holiday period. I'd have thought may - July would have been best for new financial year.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 March - October. Avoid the beginning of he year like the plague - dead as a door nail over Christmas and every man and his dog looking for work and accommodation. The new financial year has little to do with anything really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new financial year has little to do with anything really. I was led to believe that as the financial year began, companies budgets would be renewed and more roles would be available for a period of time. Perhaps I've been misinformed?

Sammy1 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Oz tends to shut down between December and February job wise and it is a nightmare trying to find a rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
