Default Finding Work on a WHV

Hi

We are going to Perth in January on a Working Holiday Visa, I am a Carpenter and my Wife has worked in payroll for 8 years.

I have completed my vestassess practical and passed but we have decided to go on a WHV first to decide whether OZ is for us.

Please could someone give us some info on working in Perth, do you think we will be able to find employment easily? We know we can only work for 6 months for one employer.

Any information or advise would be much appreciated as we are pretty nervous.

Thanks
RJDOBIE

Your wife will have no problem finding work. When you get here all she has to do is sign up with a couple of agencies and they'll find work for her as a temp. Not too sure about carpentry, though. Sorry.
