Job Search in Australia

Your job search in Australia won't be too difficult if you're willing to accept anything as a temporary job.

If you're, for example, an IT Specialist (that's Information Technology, computers for the ininitiated) and you're only willing to take temp work in IT, then your job search in Australia could take quite a while.

But if you're willing to roll up your sleeves and get dirty, then there's heaps of casual work to make your job search in Australia a fruitful one.

Speaking of "fruitful", Australian fruit growers regularly hire casual workers each season for fruit picking, so you could live on a farm for a few weeks and finish with a modest wad of cash in your pocket.

Factories in the city often hire casual staff for temp work to help them cope with the extra workload as they gear up production for Christmas. Their need for casual workers is greatest between October and Christmas Eve, December 24.

If you have basic computer skills (MS Windows, Word, Excel spreadsheets etc.) then there are numerous "Temp" agencies in Sydney, and other large cities, who could use you. They are always looking for "fill in" staff to hold the fort while a client's member of staff is on vacation or maternity leave.

Anoher possibility to help your job search in Australia includes casual work include working as a barman or barmaid. this requires a Responsible Service of Alcohol certificate, which costs about $80 (Australian currency).

Read the local newspapers for the details of training companies. If the bar you work in has slot machines (poker machines, one-armed bandits) then you may have to do a similar course for a certificate for responsible Gambling service as well. It's a pain, but it's the law.
