Guest smigs Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi All, What would be the best tactics for a couple of blokes looking for roofing & plastering work in WA. To be honest we dont have work visas but are hoping to find sponsors when we arrive in a couple of weeks time. Do you think its realistic/possible to do it this way? Were both too old to get WHVs so need to find sponsors. It sounds like there is plenty of work just at the moment & we dont mind moving around in order to find work. I believe there is plenty of work in the Karatha/Port Hedland area. Anyone have experience of working up around there? Many thanks....Smigs....

Personally I think you will find it hard to obtain sponsorship in Karratha or Port Hedland unless you FIFO. Accomodation is at a premium unless you can find a contractor who can supply a roof over your head. Best wishes and have a safe journey Susie Susie x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bensdad Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Fly In Fly Out FIFO this is how most of the mines work Fly in work x amount of days then fly out with x amount of days off, so on and so forth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
