Hi Simo

Welcome to Expat Forum

Looking forward to getting to know you more - we emigrated from the Uk to Australia 14 months ago so if you have any questions just shout

Take care

Hi Rach,
am sending CVs but it obviously takes some time... I was wondering if it would be any easier to get to australia for a few months with a tourist visa and look for a job when there... would you recommend to get a job first or do you think its a good idea? it would be like a half holiday-half job hunting kind of thing

Hi again Simo

If you already have your Visa then I would definitely recommend that - if you dont however then I probably wouldnt bother. A lot of employers wont even respond to your application if you dont yet have the right to work in Australia.
