Hey forum people, been a viewer of this for a few years now, and if it's ok with you guys, I'd love to give you my story...
Visited Oz in 2004 with my then g/f, and I loved it. I could have stayed but only came over on an tourist visa for 4 weeks. Since then (8 years ago) Ive bounced back and forwards between moving over. Im now 29 and work for an electronics retailer (think of a fruit :tongue1
as a store Manager. Ive been with them for 4 years and enjoy my job.
They have stores in Melbourne and this week I'm going to be looking down the route of sponsorship, but the chances are very low.
I still have to use my 12 month Holiday Visa, which I've been told to use and move over when funds allow.
So my question is, if my company will not sponsor me (unlikely), am I just better using my Holiday visa, putting my head down and finding a job? A lot of people move from Ireland to Oz, but they end up home within months, I have just come out of a relationship and just feel now theres no better time to move to a country I feel in love with.
Any advice, hints tips or pointers would be amazing!
This is my first post, and I'm really excited at the possibilities that lie ahead of me!
Thanks
