Well I have been and am back - for me it wasn't really worth the 15 pounds (IT sector, already sorting visa), was far to similiar to the Emigrate Expo in Sandown recently, there wasn't enough focus on jobs (only 50% of stands were job related and the majority of these were recruitment agencies - might be some good if you are in the healthcare or mining segments) and all the other stands were banks, removal services and migration agents.

It did give me a few extra ideas on websites to look at for job and possible sponsorship opportunities and it was only just down the road for me - so although I wouldn't go to another expo - it wasn't completely a waste of time - and picked up at least 5 more pens

Thumbs down Re: Opportunities Australia Expo - this weekend

Just got back. Unless:
  • your a civil/mechanical/mining engineer
  • a nurse
  • or in search of an agent, money changer, shipper, bank, etc.
I'd suggest its not worth your time or money. Worse than last time. If the organisers want to justify £10-£15 they are going to have to work much harder to get the right mix of exhibitors, not just anyone who will pay.

If I'm still in a position where I might go next time, I'll wait till the Sunday and see what the reports are from Saturday.

Disappointing.

I agree...waste of money. Have found more useful information on the internet. Shame....
