How to find Work in Melbourne
Hi everybody,
Just arrived to Melbourne and trying to get into the jobhunting stage.
I´ve been recomended to get the Saturday Age, but it appears that there is no IT jobs in it.
How have fellows IT workers managed to get a job in Melbourne?
Any advise will be appreciated...

Have you tried looking at the online job sites?
http://www.mycareer.com.au/
http://www.seek.com.au/
They have quite a bit of IT positions there.
Good luck.

Does anyone have additional advise?
Wish me luck...

There are a lot of IT agencies in Melbourne but I can recommend Candle Recruitment, Michael Payge, and Greythorn
I found www.jobnet.com.au to be a good site for IT - personally found it better than seek.com
Good Luck

contact agencies direct. make an appointment to see them - they will work harder to find you a job if they've met you and you have discussed what you are looking for.

As HP suggests you have to knock on some doors and use up some shoe leather as well as look at the websites and newspapers. The government job website also gives some general information about employment prospects in each occupational category:

RSMS stands for Royally Supported Migration Scheme. You must know someone in the royal family before you can get the application forms.

Talking and shaking hands with PA is sure to get you on the other RSMS scheme. (What's happened to Fergie incidentally? She was never out of the news at one time)
