Gbye grey sky Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hi We are thinking of attending the London event on 15/16 Feb. Never having been to one before just wondering if people who had been to past events could share their experience. How worthwhile they are and what you got from it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1cha3la Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 We went to the Overseas Expo last year. It was OK. We run through free initial visa assessments for Oz, NZ and Canada which give a simple yes or no. Naturally you have to pay if you want any level of detail. There were seminars from a few people who had moved which were interesting to listen to. A few of the big recruitment agencies were there, but would only talk to people who had visas, so that was no good for us. They are worth a look, even just to get a feel for things. We will be going back again this year now we are further down the line, to talk to some of the banking stands ect. :cute: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metoo Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 We are going to the Birmingham one on 8th Feb. We have been before but it was ages ago. Now our move is getting closer we want to talk to shippers, bankers, pet movers etc. The seminars are usually quite interesting. There was a long queue for the visa agents last time we went, but it seemed to move quickly.

jimmy1986 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I went to the London Down Under Live about 5 years ago, it was pretty good from what I remember, well worth the £10 ticket price. There were a handful of migration agencies all offering free initial assessments to see if you have the points. Representatives from the major banks were there too. There were various seminars going on, with WA state sponsorship being the only one I can remember. There was also a jobs board with vacancies listed. I'm going to the London DUL in Feb, any Melbourne bound folk want to chat over a coffee?
