Jobs In Melbourne

[sumi]

Hi I am from NZ and am applying for jobs from here (via seek etc) for melbourne, is this the best way or do i have to be in Melbourne to get a job. I all well qualified and have applied for tons of jobs but no luck yet.

Of course it would be easier to be in the country but I guess some companies may be prepared to do a phone interview. I would have thought most employers would prefer to meet you in person.

I live in Brisbane and would like to make the move to Melbourne, and even I am struggling with the 'not here to be interviewed immediately' factor that the first poster mentioned.



I guess in the end you have to know where to look and hope your skills and education are up to scratch to really have a shot at securing a Melbourne job without physically being in Melbourne. Also, it may help if you could say you have family living in Melbourne and that's why you want to move there and find work there.



Best Regards,

Hey Guys,



Don't want to scare you but I've been here in the city looking for a job for nearly a month now and still don't have one. I wouldn't even recommend replying to online ads if you aren't in the country. Most advertisers get hundreds of replies within hours of posting a help wanted ad on the internet, so as soon as they see that you aren't in the country they will most likely skip over your CV. Based on the experience of people I've met, the best way is to walk around and apply in person. I've also heard good things about recruitment agencies but haven't had any luck with them so far. Here are two massive lists to check out if you want to go that route:

Just for comparison, I've been regularly employed since the age of 16 (I'm 24 now) just graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Global Environmental Studies and I've applied to about 30 or 40 jobs with next to no response both online and in person

Of course, I'm sure with you're specialist experience you won't have as hard a time. Here are some employment sites to check out as well:
