Perthpacker Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hello boys and girls! I am in need of some serious help. I have been living in Perth for over a month now and the one thing i don't have is a job. I have sent out millions of resumes and contacted billions of agencies. The problem is i have not gotten even one reply and the good people at job agencies don't want to deal with me cause i don't have a car ( or a drivers lisence). I am on a working holiday visa, which does not help the situation, though i have no problem with understanding/speaking english. Also i don't know anyone in Perth, and it seems that the easyest way to get a job here is to know people. So if any of you lovely people here,located in Perth, happens to know someone who is hireing or if the place you work at is hireing,please help ! Anything would be fine that doesn't include running around in underwear or being a "personal assistant". Any position that doesn't recuire a certificate or a degree. Or if there are any fellow backpackers in need of a friend ( a useless one ) , please contact me. Oh and i am a 26 year old female from an unknown fairyland called Estonia. Cheers!

Guest51810 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Have you signed up to things like TAW? I know they charge but to be fair I've heard people recommend them. There's lots of Facebook pages for Australia jobs etc as well, I've got them on mine. You might already have them though. Try gumtree as well if you haven't, sometimes even putting ads up although your definitely bound to get some dodgy replies but that's another one I've heard that works sometimes. What about au pairing, that seems to be a job that's a bit easier to get although you wont make loads of money obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perthpacker Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 Thanks for the advice. I am a bit scared about the sites that charge money, so far i haven't heard anyone getting a job through them. As far as anything on the internet goes, i have tried everything that i could find. Posting an ad on gumtree just got me a lot of pervy phonecalls I'm on a three month lease in Perth so i can't move out before to go au pairing.

I just don't know how much it is to say wether it's worth it. Just keep trying and hopefully you'll get something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
