Jambolina Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hey, I have my 189 visa granted and have to be in Oz by November 2016. I am struggling to find social work jobs on-line, as it appears that 'social workers' are not really referred to as this in Oz. Any ideas of where best to look for jobs and under what job title? People have advised that I prepare a cv/resume in Australian style. Any idea what differs between a UK style cv and an Ozzie one? What's the earliest you would say to apply for a job before emigrating, bearing in mind the waiting time for a police check? Hopefully other social workers will be able to advise, based on their experiences?! Thanks, :cute: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1987Broad Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I just had a quick look and found around 700 jobs advertised for Social Workers in Sydney. Most SW's are attached to hospitals, or private health services, so that is where you should perhaps be looking. Police check should only take about 3 weeks via Fit2Work.

kmrg Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I am not currently in australia but my experience from searching on seek.com.au is that within adult services the title is often case manager or case Co - ordinator. Not sure about.children's services though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
