How can I find a job in Australia?

Expert Info

on 16 May 2016

My husband and I are looking to relocate from California to Melbourne. My husband has been a firefighter for 17 years. I am a social worker, I have a Masters Degree in Social Work. What is the best way for us to search for jobs in Melbourne? I have looked online thus far. Are their helpful job hunting sites for expats? Thanks in advance!

Hi Jen, The best way to look would be to check out job seeking websites: Seek.com.au (most comprehensive), Indeed.com.au or CareerOne.com.au. The thing is, most companies here will want the applicant to be here in Melbourne when applying. But if it is a role that they have had troubles filling, they may continue on with an application from overseas or interstate. Hope the info helps! Cheers, Winneth at FindersKeeperspl dot com
