How different is the job market in Australia compared to back home

Main motivators for Indian to migrate to Australia of course would be better lifestyle,career opportunities and better future for families.Image living next to harbour and going to work on a ferry.

No wonder Indian migrants are technically skilled but few end up in their dream job in Australia.Frustration prevails in the Early days of immigration where you hardly get any interview calls as you just dont go beyond the phone interview.You have posted 100s of resume and only 10 phone calls and none materialised in a job interview.

TIP#1 YOU NEED TO UPDATE YOUR CV TARGETING AUSTRALIAN MARKETS.The following can help

1)Job titles may be perceived differently,Same jobs responsibilities can have a different job title in Indian as compared to Australia.Fix that

2)Companies you have work in India are not know in Australia so a brief description of the same would help.(Company website,number of employees,type of organisation)

3)Don't over emphasis your qualification emphasis on the daily responsibilities at work.

4)Place 2 reference email ,phone number

TIP#2 BE AS FLEXIBLE AS YOU CAN WHEN YOU SPEAK TO THE CONSULTANT ON THE CALL.


Getting a Job in Australia is about selling yourself at the interview.No matter whether you were technically sound in your previous job in India,until unless you highlight your skills set,highlight that you are a team player,highlight that you believe that customer is king and more importantly provide specific evidence of success in these areas.


TIP3#Emphasis your Team player skills,customer services skills,Emphasis how you improved a process which cut costs,Remember the word Emphasis
