I hold a PR visa and am intending on moving back to Australia with 3 years of Malaysian IT working experience under my belt. I moved back to Malaysia upon graduation and have worked in IBM Malaysia and a local software consulting company in my 3 years back here.
Friends, what should I be prepared for, in terms of moving back to Australia? My biggest concern, is of course, securing a job there. I have tried applying on SEEK but have gotten minimal responses. I would appreciate all advice  |

QUOTE(the7signals @ May 21 2011, 09:52 PM) Have you quit IBM? If not, possible for you to apply for transfer to IBM Australia? This could be a good stepping stone for you as Australia emphasize a lot on "local (Australian)" working experience.  QUOTE(annielee @ May 22 2011, 01:34 AM) even with PR, if you are not physically in Oz, i doubt you will get any replies from the SEEK jobs you applied.. thank you 7signals and annielee for your advice.it will be good if you can ask for a transfer from IBM Msia to IBM Australia.. definitely you will have face some hard time, as some recruiter will prefer local experience under your belt as well.. Unfortunately I have left IBM Malaysia, but while I was there, I was working as an engineer monitoring compliance for IT solutions developed by IBM Australia & New Zealand. My role was an ANZ Compliance Engineer. I wonder if that counts as local (Australian) experience. Nonetheless, I have stated my working experience in IBM succinctly in my resume. I am already all geared up, leaving Malaysia at the end of June for Melbourne. Is the job market still tough? |
