I'll be finishing my bachelor of Internetworking and Security by end of this year.
I just look through the SOL list and saw that "Computer Network and Systems Engineer" was added into the list from July.
So how do I check if I'm even recognized or not for that category ? cheers'

I understand.. when I get there with holiday visa, I will just search for jobs without working.
Once get a permanent position, then I apply for work visa. Does that work??

But how to find accommodation if I'm currently in Malaysia?
*
do you have relatives, friends here ? you know the rental is pretty expensive rite ?
To get a job is one thing, but how much they willing to pay per hour ?
Does that job alone enough to cover all the expenses + earnings ?
currently i know a taiwanese gal who's on working visa, 2 jobs she's workin, only pay $100/week (electric, water, internet) for rent at her friends place.
and yes she earns a lot.

If anyone's planning to work in Perth ( working visa ) then you can try McD spearwood ( very dodgy area ), but I've worked there for 2 years ( seen a body infront of store, hostage situation, etc-etc ).

If you're over 21 and willing to work from 10pm to 6am, pay is $22, late night rate 4 hours $24.50.
If you're a girl you can work as cashier, guy work at the back.

But it's a bone breaking job, good luck. If you ain't rich and you wanna survive in Australia you gotta work hard then.
Suck it up or go back to where you came from.

That is really high pay considering accommodation (the most expensive thing for anyone by far) is covered and food too. Plus he is not diploma/degree/trade qualified and only working in restaurant business (which, to be fair, you don't need professional qualifications for, so anyone can do it).

How lucky is he and how do the rest of us get that action?
What the fcuk, body and hostage and you're recommending ppl to work there? We barely got over the siege.

Bit sexist right if girl work front only... Aussie girls are attractive but you don't find a lot of them at fast food counters. They got the waitressing and bartending gigs. Or fashion outlets.

Bone breaking? Sounds like fun.

lol thats because all the heavy lifting and machine cleaning are all done by guys of course.
The reason I recommend that place is because they are always hiring new staffs.
I've been there for 2 years, have to survive mate no choice.
The pay was great, job was tiresome but not stressful, I just need to complete everything and off I go ( get free breakfast as well lol ).
But the job really screwed up my lifestyle.

Night shifts 99% you would get it because nobody wanna work there
I mean if you're on a 1 year working visa you could possibly saved up to $10 to 20k easily working there.

My old korean housemate manage to save around $10k just by working at a cafe which pays $18/h, but he gets free food and don't often go out.

But he was paying $140/week rent and only does one job, while my other McD taiwanese workmate was paying $90/week rent from a taiwanese landlord.
She was working 2 jobs and gets free food as well from the other job. I reckon she would have saved a lot !

if not china town and earn $10 per hour, up to those who wish to go there and work.

interesting.

city life is costing a lot! 10 20k sounds like crazy. 90 dollar rent, live in sweatshop?

There are rooms where you can share it with another person, hence the cheap rent smile.gif Utility bills are all included as well ( look up gumtree )
Not within the city of course, you won't get that kind of rate even if you share the room.

over here, share rooms could be like 150-250 near city. slightly away from city (bus) for single room is like 200-250+. before utilities normally but those are very little.

glad I am living in Perth then, I am renting a whole house ( 3 room 1 bathroom ) that cost me $420 per week.
Train to my workplace only takes 15 minutes.
And properties in my suburb are 400-550k which I will be able to afford after next year.
There are a lot of part time jobs in Perth, and rent is not that expensive over here if you live away from the city.
