One guy even told me that they "have men here who do that kind of work"
It might be different because of your special qualification but I have no problems finding an office/clerical job in Perth. Almost every recruitment agency I applied for had something for me. Which one did you try?
For office jobs, especially at the Government, I can recommend Gel Group and Integritty Staffing. Have a look on seek. They got lot's of temping jobs you can start with immediately.
I also had very good experience with Porter Consulting and Drake and Hudson, especially for permanent jobs.
Don't give up and good luck.

I've found several times that the easiest way to get a job is to take a temp role from an agency and then worm your way in that way.

Then the employer can find out if you are actually any good, grow to love you and hire you without paying the HUGE agency fees (if they are sneaky about it).
