anlopa Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 how did the phone interview go Anlopa? Good i hope! It went well. I hope!!!! :notworthy:A few things I will say is if you go for an interview or have an interview make sure you know your C.V inside out and any of the abbrev's that you use ensure you remember what they mean.:GEEK: In the interview they didn't question my mechanical ability:wacko: it was all about behavioural questions:wub: - examples if when you have experienced a situation. Think STAR - situation, task, action, result. Write down and rehearse situations as that formed the whole of the interview. :chatterbox: Before the interview I checked my emails and another company who I have been in contact with had sent me an email asking if I was still interested in an interview. So fingers crossed I might just have a job to go to:wubclub:. The only thing that could be better is to sell the house. Anyone want a house.:jiggy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bj27 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Tania can you please turn us purple? We got our Christmas present today!

Bpremji Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hi Tania, If no one else wants to do it, I dont mind keeping the thread and spreadsheet updated. Update from me, we have got a buyer!!! for our house I'm just in the process now of going through the deal so more stress over the next 6 weeks or so. I wanted to know if anyone wanted to take over this thread as in the next couple of weeks I think things will start to get busy for, I will make sure who ever would like to take over get access some how to the front page, please let me know if you are interested.

anlopa Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hi Tania, If no one else wants to do it, I dont mind keeping the thread and spreadsheet updated. Well done Bpremji, :biggrin: This thread is a life line for so many Tania started a fab thing here and it has been kept up to date brilliantly. I know you will do an excellent job in keeping the thread running. I am glad that someone has taken it over. I didn’t cos I’ve got my visa and will soon be moving as well. Maybe we could do a cat 4 the sequel or cat 4 where are you now. Just so those that have visas and are moving can discuss and let people know how you’re getting on. We could keep it on the cat 4 thread but there is nothing worse than Yerr lets meet up for a bbq on the beach under the scorching sun, when you are sat in the front window of your house franticly checking the visa application while watching the rain batter the for sale board. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bpremji Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Im not sure I'll do a good a job as Tania has but will definately try.... If Tania cant give me control of the first post we may need to start a new thread 'Cat 4 Processing Part 2' or something similar?

I was thinking the same, we need another chat room as don't want to rub salt in any wounds. :jimlad: I would like to discuss 'how hot it was today' , 'How big the spider i saw on my bed when i woke up this morning'....or more importantly "how many shrimps i can fit on my BBQ" :cute::biglaugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 3Pirrets2Oz Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hi everyone!! Really pleased with all the movement for everyone Just wanted to let you all know that since getting our case officer on the 5th December and been asked to get meds and police checks, all our docs were changed to 'MET' except 'specific work experience' which was changed to 'received'. I emailed on friday 16th to ask if they required any further documents from us in relation to this. Yesterday Hubby's boss received a phone call for job verification Today 'specific work experience' has changed to 'MET'!! Yay!! Baby due in Feb, as mentioned before, so will be applying for meds and police checks following the birth Silly little things, but another tick on the list as such!! Another few days before Christmas break - more CO and Grants please DIAC xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tania cant give me control of the first post we may need to start a new thread 'Cat 4 Processing Part 2' or something similar? They will be big shoes to fit, but you are by far the best one to fit them :0D And yes I think it's a good idea to have a post visa thread.

Jambos Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Help! On the Bridge clinic website it states: "Please select Complete Health Forms for this Applicant at the bottom of the page" on the application status page. I cannot see this on my page? Does this only appear once DIAC instruct to get meds ie when a co is allocated etc? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vzdrul Sharikoff Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I support Bpremji's idea to entitle him with all the necessary rights. So keep it going:biggrin: Besides, I am still without a CO and I seem to be the only May applicant here who is still looking for an officer. Mr/Mrs Officer, I am here!!! Look through my application and grant me with my sweet visa!!!!:wubclub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
