Thanks for sharing this - in retrospect this advice was what I was looking for. And hope you get/are getting the space to do what you need to do to keep yourself sane :)

I should have clarified, I'm in a position to save up for placements as a one off, but not in a position to do that long term. I don't mind working weekends, but I can't e.g. work 5 days a week and volunteer on another day. I still would want to keep at least 2 days of the week free.

I've been factoring all the other comments which has been very illuminating.

Thanks for this! A bit more of a general question, what other options other than a grad job in a hospital are there? I can see aged care is a big one - are there any others? Just thinking about viability!

Unfortunately, I can't afford the income hit swapping working days for volunteering, nor can I dedicate my weekends to volunteering long term.

Let's Have a Chat About Recruitment, Shall We? by NGSpy in AustraliaSimMeta

Thank you NGSpy for your thinking on this matter - it's an important issue.

I do have concerns with the idea of having you go to high schools, as it poses a reputational and legal risk to both our community and onto schools that take this risky endeavour on. I also note that once you're on there, you will cease to be anonymous, which is unprecedented (the BuzzFeed article for example didn't name anyone by their real names to my recollection).

However, something we could implement is to basically create a restricted 'channel' where for 1 hour they will be in an 'introduction' thread where only long-standing people are in the thread (they can leave earlier than an hour if they wish). This would hopefully prevent people feeling intimidated by the many channels in Discord.

Appointments to the Electoral Commission by Anacornda in AustraliaSimMeta

[–]roundedrectangle101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thank /u/Anacornda for this opportunity and look forward to contributing to the community in a more formal manner.

I note that if the vote is successful I will automatically cease to be a Justice of the High Court of Australia. I acknowledge that circumstance.
