I would prefer colder weather because Perth is too hot for my liking. By colder you don't mean freezing cold, is it?

Can anyone here provide me some information about Albany? I mean likes of weather, transportation system, housing and jobs. Thank You

That's a very good news

Thank You Zena for the advice.

I don't have any WA experience as I have just recently migrated to Perth. That means my chances of landing a job is .....

Is Perth that bad? Have I landed myself into trouble by moving to Perth then? OMG!!!

Does contacting directly to the potential employers holds true for consulting companies as well?

Is it mandatory for the new arrivals to register with centerlink? And if yes, can it be done online? Thank you in advance

I am also a civil engineer with design experience. I have applied for several jobs but couple of them had already rejected while waiting response from the rest. But I am not that positive. Have heard that job market is down. Hopefully it will go up soon. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Can you share that excel sheet with me as well?

We are planning to move in early Feb 2014. But till now we haven't managed to find an accommodation for us. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

We don't have any friends there. So we need to look out for cheap temporary accommodation for at least a couple of weeks. I have marked couple of places in airbnb but nothing's finalized yet. BTW, how did you manage the long term rental? I mean don't you need any kind of reference for it? Regards

1k a week!!! Shocking...

What would be an average rent near the city?

Thank you all

We are a couple moving to Perth in Early February. The problem is that we don't know anyone there. Can anyone tell us where to stay during our early days? Also how to find an apartment or a room to rent for the first time since we don't have any reference?

Its natural for anyone,esp those who have appointed agent and have no access to the happenings, to be curious and wanting to check their application status. However it's not worth it. The information on the net is not updated usually so there's no point drawing conclusions from it. Once I compelled my agent to check the status in front of me. To my dismay and btw his too, it said all documents requested except for PCC. My agent had send those documents to CO six weeks earlier. Few days later I was granted visa but the status was same i.e documents still requested...

Mine CO was appointed after 46 days.

Hi, I have recently been granted a SN190 visa. I am a qualified civil engineer with 10 years experience. However I have never practiced outside my home country. What are my chances of finding a job as a civil engineer?

​Same Pinch!!!

​Congratulations!!!

I applied for the 190 Visa on March 30, 2013. CO (team 31, Brisbane) appointed on May 15, 2013. PCC & Medicals uploaded on May 22, 2013. Waiting since then......

Can you please share your timeline?

Congratulations

Seems no one else has CO from Team 31, Brisbane
