This SKILLED visa thing is all wrong
We don't need accountants, doctors or engineers. We need cleaners and gardeners.

They should introduce a new visa type for Poles and Romanians with no skills and unable to speak English to fill the vacancies that actually exist. It works in the UK

Well, from experience, even those with the skill requirements, they don't want us once we get here.

Have you tried Kabalason in Joondalup? It really is very nearly the real thing. Proper hot and spicy if you get the chicken Narbersomethingorotherverylong.
The Beuamaris shops do an interesting curry too - as different to an English curry as thai is but still very good in its own way. The one we had was quite sweet and had almonds in but it was quite hot and very tasty.

The whole skilled migration thing is just a con to make money. Protectionism and anti pom sentiment make it very hard to actually use your skills here unless you can become self employed in them.

Hi yeah I came out on a skilled visa, mental health nurse, BUT the crazy thing is I can choose to work at any job I please. Does not make any sense.

It does cost money for certain trades to get licenced, but it's not just the 'poms' who pay, Aussies have to pay the same fees.

Cant understand why they are advertising to attract people to jobs when they could easily force the long term unemployed to either take the jobs or have their benefits stopped
