Hi, You need to be more specific about where in Oz you are going? My wife took a month to find work here in Queensland (Sunshine Coast) and even now it's only casual work so could get the boot anyday. I can only speak for this area only, it may be different in other parts of the country.... also be prepared for a serious drop in wages compared to the UK, people don't give tips here either.
