Default Please keep your fingers crossed!!!

Ed - (husband) has told his company we are off and his lovely boss has been busy contacting Aus to find out if there are any vacancies. Today he has told us there is a vacancy in exactly the same role as he is in now!!! If the manager likes the look of him on paper then he will have a video interview...apparently they have done this in the past.

So today he has been talking to an Aussie manager who has come over here who knows said manager very well..he thinks they will go out on a limb to keep him..yippeee - there has even been mention of financial assistance with the move if it came off.

I am afraid to get too excited about this, it all seems too bloody good to be true - what with getting the visa in the first place, passing the medicals and not having to pay a bond after all, I just feel it's too much luck.

Please all keep your fingers crossed for us!

Will keep you posted.

Bring it on

hope he gets the job, and what a double bonus if they help with costs. Just hope Mr Walaj bosses have the same reaction, but I doubt it

If they offer financial assistance, make sure you ship the entire contents of your house!

Maybe get them to chuck in 4 weeks accommodation in a luxury hotel whilst your sort out your own arrangements! (Only joking)

Best of luck though!!
