Migration Show!
Hi I have just spoken to my Sister in OZ and she said that shortly after getting her Visa she was invited along to a Migration show set up by DIMIA at Austravel in London. It had all the main Australian Banks, removal firms, Airlines etc. I have searched the forum and cannot find any info on it, mind you she did move about 7 or 8 years ago.

I went last year and it was pretty good. Banks, removal firms, airlines, state governments and lots of health-related recruitment. Not so good for I.T. recruitment, seems I.T. recruiters just use the Internet. Also went to the Kiwi one, where they were a little more enthusiastic about I.T. (perhaps just 'cause I'm Kiwi
).

These plus the jobs one at Earl's Court referred to are the main ones I am aware of.
The best part of these shows in my experience has been meeting up with other future ex-pats for a beer or 6 afterwards. I would like to think we will be in Perth by October but if not should be up for a meet at the show again.
