hmm been about many years since i logged into LYN. seems they still have my login.

i'll give my two cents on migration

i lived in Malaysia for 20 years before moving to Australia to study about 9 years ago. I am an Australian citizen now.

you'd need some money in the bank while you look for a job in Australia. When i got my PR i moved to Melbourne from Brisbane. It was fairly quick for me to get a job at first as within 1 month of searching i started working in a warehouse packing boxes and unloading containers for about 18 AUD an hour as a casual. Hard work, but pays the bills and the beer. After 2 months on the job my employer "upgraded" me to the office working on administration. From then on i slowly started building up work experience in Australia.

Here's a tip: just get any job while you are on the hunt for your preferred job . Also knowing how to write a good cover letter and putting through job applications as soon as it goes live (8am usually) helps alot in scoring interviews.
