I recently took promotion to run my team now.

I actually had three offers in same week.....like buses.
Well done! Seems like they value Canadian experience a lot.

Hope you will get a job ASAP.
Why do you want to move from Oz ? That's where most of us dream of going too.. Particularly Melbourne being the most liveable city in the world years running ??

Oh, Don't get me wrong - I LOVE Melbourne. But, anybody who has traveled would agree with me, that once the travel bug bites you, there is no stopping. I only want to live away for a couple of years or so
