Default Introduce Myself

Hi everyone,

My name is Jason, a 176 VIC sponsored migrant from China. My profession is Aircraft maintenance engineer.

I can not be used to the speaking of local people though I have been in AU for almost two months. Sometimes I totally have no idea about what they are talking about because they speak too fast and unclear.

So far I have not got my job yet. Next monday there is a interview with ALG. Good luck to me!

Hey John, all the best for your interview. During any conversation if you are unable to catch the dialog, you can any time ask them to repeat what they say. They wont mind and next time they might speak slowly.

Cheers
Jaffar

Welcome to the forum...
Which part of australia are you staying ? I am an electrical engineer and plan to apply for Vic SS.
Since you are also an engineer by profession I thought of asking these questions to you :

1. According to you which is a better choice in terms of job opportunities : Melbourne or Regional Victoria ?

2. Any particular area in Regional Vic which you have found suitable to finding jobs for Engineers ?

Best of Luck for your upcoming interview....

Hi, life is good, isn't it?
Actually I'm not famaliar with the occupation of electrical engineer. however, I know Vic gov will recommend you to the potential employers in regional if you can not get a job in Melbourne for a certain period.

Thank you all very much for your kind ragards!

Interview is good, some regular questions. The problem is that my Visa is sponsored by VIC, so I can not go out for the job in Brisbane. Maybe they have other jobs in Vic in furture. Waiting for the notification. There is a long road to go!

Hi DC3, Call me Jason. John Watson is the name I quote from a fiction. It seems that you know the trade well. Actually, I'm holding some aircraft types operated in domestic lines, i,e,. 737, 320. What's your occupation?
