Re: Going nuts!

If my visa was taken away tomorrow, I'd probably reapply. I still want to go, but I just feel that I should have waited a few more years. At least I could have stayed in London only until I'd have...

Re: Going nuts!

I am indeed on PR skilled migrant visa but because I had less than £10k savings I chose to find a job before moving. I have never worked for an investment bank as I dismissed all the opportunities I...

Re: Is anyone still moving without a job offer

Well, yes, as I said it depends on the profession. The OP hasn't yet told us what the OH is doing for a living, it could be IT or something else that is in demand. Or not. My point was that if the...

Re: Is anyone still moving without a job offer

I managed to arrange all my interviews for 6.30 or 7 AM UK time so far, just before going to work. I agree that middle of the night interviews are not fun and I'd try to avoid them if possible. The...

Re: Is anyone still moving without a job offer

Re: Fed up of Melbourne. Seriously.

There are only 18 IT jobs on seek.com.au in Townsville & Norhern QLD. I wonder how many of them match the OP's background as there are no software development jobs.

Re: Rental applications got rejected

Try properties that don't have open viewings as there should be less competition for them.

Re: (175/6 Visa) 18 March 2011 letters
