Finding Work Down Under
My wife to be and I have recently received our permanent VISA's and are planning to move to Australia in 'late 08', although because of the VISA terms we are entering the country for our honeymoon later this year.
Obviously I am worried about getting work (although we plan to save some money so that we have something to fall back on) - does anyone know of recruitment agents who deal with clients who are based abroad? I would love to secure a job before we reached down under!?

Might be worth getting a few intros set up for when you're over on your honeymoon though.
Out of interest, what's your occupation, and where are you going?
PS congrats on the visas and forthcoming wedding.

Re: Finding Work Down Under
Thanks!
I work in IT (Software engineer) and am emigrating to Sydney. One of my old companies has an office in Sydney, and as I left them on good terms and really enjoyed working for them I am kind of hoping that they may be a solution!
Where do you live?
