calNgary Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Hiya Brisbane is screaming for drivers,and like you i cannot understand why they havnt yet been added to the 'wanted' list ,if you look at http://www.alljobs.com and type in hgv driver etc it will bring up all the jobs Oz wide ,,you can narrow down to region search too if you fancy one paticular area,i would contact as many companys as possible and sell yourself ,mentioning you need sponsership ,,most companys probably wont even reply but you only need one who does,i have also noticed alot of hgv work is down to owner drivers dont quite know how you would stand in this case,,hope this helps also like Gill said have a chat with phil olsen as ,,if theres a way in he will know ,, good luck Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Broughtons Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Don't forget that you can't just switch your UK license for an assie one, get in a lorry and drive. You have to re-take your tests and this includes theory as well as practical. Michael has his HGV Class 1 and can apply to take his Heavy Combination once we get there, he's thankful he doesn't have to go back to 7.5 tonne and work his way back up.

The Broughtons Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm afraid we couldn't get in on Michael's skills. Security and HGV don't score anything. I'm a teacher so we are going on my skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
