As it`s one of the near-essentials of life in Australia, I`m wondering what the job opportunities are or what education is available in Perth for someone without any direct experience but lot`s of learning ability and interest?

Thanks Banana! Just saw this reply. The way this forum works is weird sometimes.

Surpised the wages start at $28000 .... I thought it would be alot more.

Hi

I am in the AC Business and an offsider or aprentice would be on this salary.
However a good installer or service tech would probably be on double this the emphasis being on "wages start at $28K".

I worked for a local contractor for awhile and the general standard was poor, however the frigies were still earning upto $70k a year and some were on a lot more. I seriously thought about going back to the "tools"

I now work for a major manufacturer of AC products, in after sales/technical support.

Every job I have applied for here I have been offered! (9 in total) There is a serious shortage of experianced people in all fields.

Good Luck

Stormz,
Jacko is correct, when I started my apprenticeship in the UK it was on less than half of what I'm on now.

After you have finished it, it should rapidly rise as you become more usefull.

Bye

Thanks guys,

Well I will be unskilled but as the money is better it`s something I`m interested in breaking into. What courses would you sugegst I take to be able to earn the better than apprentice money, and which area? The after-sales and tech support I could handle quite easily I believe, after training.

10 years in digital tv has got to be worth something surely? I`m a pure-bred computer geek
