Hi Davie

Welcome to the forum......where I am in Central Queensland they are crying out for joiners....in fact all trades, peoples houses lie for weeks uncomplete, just waiting on the trades to become available

Good Luck

Try having a look on the aussie job websites and changing the states to see where there are the most jobs

Hi Davie

I am almost at the end of my application and I am also a Joiner. We are hoping to move to Perth WA. My brother who has lived there for 14 yrs informed me only today that they are screaming out for Joiners so finding work should be ok. I'm not sure about wages but I have heard $25 per hour being mentioned.

Good luck with the TRA as this will be your biggest hurdle
