If your client manage to find a job on his own, the AUD$1k is not fully refundable, our non-refundable fee of AUD$250 will still stand. It is the same for if the client wants to terminate our services.

Then again, if the client signs up with us, then decide 1 week later then he dont want to use us, we will of course refund the full amount. It all boils down to a case by case basis.

Come on mate, we are legally operating company, with an ABN and an office (just 5 mins away from one of our bro's here). Why would we want to scam you?

Added on June 15, 2012, 9:19 amThe AUD$1k is for lifetime.

Get a job means - sit for interview (either by telephone, email, person and/or internet teleconferencing), look at employment contract, sign the contract and we send you a copy.

If you fail the interview, then try harder the next time. We will prepare our clients by seeking the possible questions that the employer will ask, and feedback to our clients before the interview. Sometimes, it takes the effort of the interviewee to do his research on the information.

Mate here is the deal, we charge only a mere AUD$4k (in total after signing contract) for finding an employer who is willing to employ you to come to Australia. That will mean the company is legally liable for anything that you do in Australia. Their company will put all responsibility for all your actions, and also to be the nominator for your working visa to Australia. If you are unfamiliar with working in Australia, I can tell you it is very very difficult to enter Australia on a working visa.

There are more obligations and responsibilities that the Australian company has to ensure.

May I know which city you living in? Based on your post I'm guessing you have a family to support, what do you think the life will be like for a young person who migrate there alone?

Is IELTS that difficult? Was hoping to score band 8 in all ha... I'm still in dilemma whether to apply for skilled migration visa! It's not cheap ;/

i wish to apply but something not so good news for me...

now need to try to look for alternative way...

Stay on here in Malaysia you mean? :/ I know it's very very difficult to get archi job in big cities like melb or Sydney but probably more hopeful in Perth? Haha

Haha how to 'stay on' when I'm not even there now! ((

i wish to apply but something not so good news for me...

Hi guys.

Im currently a graduate from Bachelor of Quantity Surveying. Going to pursue my Master's degree next year (March) in Australia (Master of Project Management).

Will I have a chance to work there after I graduated from my Masters degree? I wanted to work there if I have the chance

Hope some of u sifus can give opinion.

Thanks!

Well, do u wanna listen to a real story happening here?

I heard from a Chinese guy mentioned, some tried to get into Oz but failed due to so many restriction. So, they go thru the working visa 457. They actually look for a company sponsorship to work here. They paid the company on application of visa and even the salary! means they pay salary to themselves in order to get into Oz. After 2 years, they can go thru application for PR. Of course, those days IELTS requirement not that high.

I even heard some rich Chinese businessmen buy watever shit business here as TR. They throw in money to meet the income target for 2 years then sell off to some other guy who will doing the same thing. Once the meet 2 years TR, they can apply for PR. That's y i saw a restaurant owner change so many round here....some even malaysian!

Oz gov now wanted to restrict immigrants from coming in giving you some bullshit requirement. If you have degree, you're already far more qualified than the local Ozzie here coz i know majority construction or project manager dun even have diploma! But they earn $150k/annum richer than u 3 times. It's not about racist, it's more on discrimination on other nation capabilities. But of course, i do saw some Ozzie lazy bump really don't like to work. They'll accept watever salary or shitty jobs u offer. Once they get in, they'll make u fire them so that they can continue claiming centrelink money.

Just made my visit to local public housing (low cost housing) rented to Aboriginal. Damn, nice house turn into shit house. Even got condom in the kitchen basin! All walls got holes, shit inside the toilet. All doors got holes. I even saw an underground hideout. Heard from gov agent said they tend to hide themselves under so that police won't detect them there. Tot there's some corpses being buried there.....and smells stinks!

Got some photo, dunno how to upload it here

So there's no shale boom in Australia at all...i thought they had just discover something big down south in Coober Pedy? As far as i knw, the mining industry in USA is in such a sad state now haha... bad timing to study mining engineering now.

Mining industry in Australia still consider OK for now but definitely something will change in say 5-10 years. The cost of living is getting higher and minimum wage is not low too. Many shopping centre don't dare to open till late hour because of the minimum wage + shift allowance.

Lived in Australia for 5 years and I love it there. There are pros and cons but what I like the most is work-life balance, bigger country for me to drive around, many events going on, able to see other cultures(be it Italian, Greek, Spanish, Korean, Japanese,Chinese, Hongkie, Indian, etc), amazing food(not the Asian food), etc. Public transport is consider OK for me as long as I don't have to transit around. Weekend is really a weekend where you can see everyone relaxing and kids running around but they never neglect their works during weekdays.

I have been looking for job in Singapore and been there back and forth frequently in these 1 month. THe people there are selfish and arrogant, public transport is OK for me if I don't have to transit between bus and MRT, food is so-so only compare to Malaysia, rental is expensive, no where to go in a small island,etc.

Everyone have their own lifestyle and for me Australia suits me. The weather could be horrible but at least they have a not-so-cold winter.People say the property is expensive in Australia but Singapore is not that cheap either. One HDB flat can cost more than SGD$800k and that building looks horrible. I can build a house+garage from scratch with a land for AUD$400-500k in Melbourne inner-suburb. My ex-colleague just built a 4 bedrooms house + garage from scratch for just $480k in Caulfield area and can take a 20 minutes train to CBD to work.

Good things about both countries are you will have purchasing power if you work there. You can easily go travel with the strong currency and electronics are not that expensive.

Personally i feel australia working wise is good for entry level to lower management level because of the min wage and work life balance. But once you are in mid to senior level it becomes very difficult as pay is stagnant and taxes are high while opportunities are also limited. So think long term. Unless you want to be a senior exec forever.

One more thing i foresee is that all those fringe benefits like unemployment benefits, cheap education, gov sponsored healthcare will come to an end soon. Maybe in another 10-15years. This is because when the mining sector (which funds australia) will slow down drastically in the next couple of years as demand from china slows and competition bites

We have topics that discuss jobs in Singapore and Australia actively, so I take that these are the top 2 career destinations out of the country for Malaysia. In terms of Australia, as mentioned it is a hot spot, but what about New Zealand? We aren't getting much talks about New Zealand when it's relatively close to Australia as well. What makes Australia preferred than NZ?

For accounting, there's huge surplus now jobless. The reason is too many ppl migrating in based on account profession.
You could try sydney or melbourne but there's huge competitive in those places coz everyone like to go there.
The reason i leave sydney is becoz i totally tired of city life. Sydney = KL. = Melbourne
Sydney would be cleaner of course. but it's a fast pace lifestyle. Perth is totally different world from eastern states. That's y it suits me.
Well, you have to ask yourself what sort of lifestyle you want. Or else you'll be miserable and complaining everyday

Is Melb as fast paced? I mean, I'm sure there's work outside of the city. I bet it's cheaper to have offices outside of the city center. Hell, I used to only go into the city in Melb to jalanx2 with friends.

Yeah, that's why i always screw those arrogant people who would like to act on 'step on your head 1st'
I threw them some queries until they themselves can't answer and screw him.
Yes, you're right. There's plenty in Malaysia as well. People asking question doesn't mean they're stupid. They just wanna know and get things right. I found almost majority malaysian do think that people asking question is stupid.
My experience is that i ask question on certain technical issue to my senior manager, they'll throw you a question. 'YOU DUNNO AR? YOUR IQ SO LOW AR? SUCH AN IDIOT AR, ARE YOU RETARDED?' Well, not just that, even most of the people surround me do have this kind of attitude. You cannot oppose their decision, no question ask. No queries. Just become yes man.
Yeah, i might be stupid in a seconds and would be informative in the rest of my life. Well, the senior manager who reply me that, still working like hell and underpressure everyday. Loss his hair somewhere somewhat almost 50 and underpay. Went back last trip to pay a visit to him. Seems getting pale on his face. 

1) I must say my bro working in SG O&G. He told me not all singaporean are really bad arse but majority yes. Money minded. Lost of respect to family elders and children grown up in a situation of comparing each other. Pretty arrogant and selfish and sometimes back stabber. I've encoutered myself during uni. Such an arsehole!

2) I do met some Ozzie arsehole as well. Fly kite somemore. However, generally they're pretty easy to mix around. Not as  bad as what we think. If you need their help, they really help you. I was very lucky have some Ozzie friends who really helped me a lot in work. Greeting each other is something we need to learn from and it's important! This is in respect of humanity. I realised how important it is to greet someone you dunno.

3) Providing you're super rich. If you're earning in Oz, you be able to build your own house with your own design at reasonable cost. What's the majority people stays in SG? Pigeon hole? How many could afford landed property?
The only thing i agree with you is Australia is a boring place FOR shopping mall shoppers. It's a fascinating place for outdoor activities! Fishing or BBQ or spending quality times with family & friends. You won't get bored with these activity. If anyone who's really a mall shoppers or like to stay at home, please don't come.

4) Yeah, you're right. How bout when you're bringing your kids or babies along where no one taking care of them at home? Ask them to carry your grocery bags?

5) SG is strong currency no doubt you can travel overseas in affordable price. Ozzie currency not bad either. going USA/Europe/NZ/Micronesia/SEA at very very affordable price.

Please elaborate how very very few asian top management? any statistic?

Image & value in Oz is multiculturalism:-
1) PR holders could work in government sector.
2) PR holders could tender government job (I just help my PR boss won 2 government project).
3) PR holders can get government housing scheme (FHOG)
4) PR holders could enter local uni
5) PR holders could get gov scholarship
6) PR holders entitled centrelink

so please elaborate the bolded terms

I think you're asian supremacy. Asians are good in the job they're doing but ruthless as well treating the staff. Why majority asians like to join westerners company?
