Hi there,

We are arriving in Brisbane on 7th Sept and I (Michele) will be looking for work pretty much straight off. I have been a hairdresser for 22 years and working mobile for the last 12.

Can anyone offer any advice, recommendations for where to look, experiences etc?

Obviously if you want to offer me a job, feel free!!

Sorry cant offer a job, good luck with that one, but just wondered if you applied under STNI or Gen skills and how long it all took? Thanks

Mrs GD....hairdresser of 14 years....looking to emigrate.

That's a very good question, and when I find out I will let you know!

We went through Trades Recognition for a Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 136) details here:-

Sorry I can't be clearer, but any further questions give us a shout
