There are 10 questions on perming, 10 on colouring 10 on tinting and 10 on health n saftey. They give you 15min to read the paper then 1 hour to do it. Its fine hun, if I passed anyone can lol.

Guest Barefootpip Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 We have our visa and we are comming in 7 weeks (Ish) and im looking for a job in Redcliffe/Queensland area in hairdressing or barbouring.

TaniaColin Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi Jools When i was filling in my TRA i just put as much info in there as possible from what you did in each place you worked, this is what i did, i did not do an apprenticeship either. Put things down like cleaning and sterilising tools. Customer service, consultations etc, i wrote pages. I also enclosed accounts, stat decs from clients and wholesalers. I did use Go-matilda and found them to be very good with helping me at this stage. I should not worry about not being able to get refs from employers i did not have any either, as i have been self-employed for 24 years. I'm sure you will get more response from other hairdressers. Best of luck with it all Tania X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just finding it a bit hard on going for any salon jobs as im looking at salons in our chosen area and they are not showing an email address or website. Will be doing it the old fashion way of post.

TaniaColin Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi, we think the house sale is going to be alright, although it has been a bumpy ride, when we did our reccie trip i bought the local paper and there was quite a few hairdressing jobs advertised, haven't you got friends or family who could look in the local papers for you??

Jackboots Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 hi katie, you need to ring an agent and talk to them on the phone, they will tell you all you need to know, go mathilda have a really good reputation on here , there is also a thread for** which agent did you use..im hairdresser in wa , but we came on my oh's skill for visa and we used 1st contact migration agents google all on the web , the tests ive done are for wa state haidressing regulation board , only viable in this state i think , please don't qoute me on that as i may be wrong! a written and practical, you have to do these to actually be able to get a job here in wa allthough you can get a permission to work letter prior if you register and book first exam .... ( all about the money in mine and many ozzies opinions), all the best keep posting you will get more answers , maybe better to post on migration issues as well , all the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
