Guest kdal Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Hi Pete & Kim Sorry but I don't know anything about your trade but a little search on the web www.careerone.com.au and this came up and some more quote RE-CAR WELDERS / BODY BUILDERS Re-Car is Australia's largest wholly owned heavy vehicle repair network with workshops in Townsville, Brisbane, Newcastle, Wagga and Melbourne. We currently have vacancies at our Melbourne (Mulgrave) workshop for two enthusiastic persons to take up positions in the Welding shop.

Above award rates will be offered to the right candidate. Call David Dean on 8545 1000 Re - Car: Integrity Quality Professionalism unquote Not sure if this is what you do, but unfortunately it doesn't give the pay??

Rates vary a lot depending on where you work - what city/state are you in/heading for? One of my clients in South Australia would snap you up in a heart beat - put it that way! If you want to talk to someone directly involved in employing your trade I can put you in contact. Cheers Shauna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pete n kim Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 hi shauna0 thanks for the reply my wife and i have been thinking about brisbane area but we have no contacts in any area so are free to go where we like or where my job is best suited for the last 8 years i have been involved in some of the most modern designed tippers in the country i would be most appreciative if you could put me in touch with your client thanks again and do you think i could get sponsored and how do you do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ShaunaO Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Hi Pete I'm going to suggest you get directly in touch with Nic Matthews who works onsite with our client - she will be able to give you top notch advice. I suspect though that you would be much better off putting in your own perm residency application than going after sponsorship. I know its not cheap and that you don't get your fee back if you are unsuccessful however not many Aussie employers sponsor trades and you are tied to that employer if you do get sponsored. Also most people who are sponsored end up wanting to stay permanently anyway and its a stressful process to put yourself through once you are here. Anyway, Nic's email address is nicola.matthews@tenix.com. I have had a chat to her and she knows you will be in touch. Bye for now. Shauna.
