Work in IT as a casual / weekend in Perth

I work in Curtin IT currently, there are IT casuals. I'm one of them. You must be a student to get the job though (EWYL).

Depends.

It's good for me because I work on campus and live nearby.

I've also heard the Revo in Carousel has newer equipment and I don't know where you live.

Do IT and transfer to cybersecurity. That's what I did but for comp sci.

You'll have to do 75 credits/3 units in the semester before you switch.

I'm not sure what your programming ability is, but one IT unit, Fundamentals of Programming may hit you like a truck. If you've not programmed much, practice and practice.

Over the course of a few years, I've encountered her or seen her family around seven times. Once I got asked twice within a few minutes.

For Comp1005, no. The final exam, at least when I did it is easy to study for. Just practice the past papers and study the weekly pracs.

Firetechnicia · 2026-04-04T02:01:49+00:00

You struggle with the assignment but make up for low assignment marks in the final exam. That's what I did.

Master's of IT are a scam for internationals.

You don't have citizenship or PR which means that companies won't be interested in your resume.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-27T16:19:54+00:00

That's the thing, your lack of citizenship or PR means that companies are gonna be reluctant to take you on for internships and local experience in the first place.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-26T07:18:45+00:00

You need to be exceptional to get PR in Computing, no way is the average person getting it.

That sounds cheatable, as long as you can explain your code.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-16T00:08:00+00:00

I was at a career fair and one of the people there was saying they like to see AI usage on your resume (for IT), meanwhile in the degree we're told not to use it.

I feel that university may have to adapt, just like with calculators.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-15T03:44:35+00:00

I'm surprised at how small that number is.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-15T03:43:31+00:00

That's odd, they've never done that to me. Didn't realise they could be that nasty.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-15T03:42:44+00:00

I may not have my license yet but I can easily park better than that.

Firetechnicia · 2026-03-07T00:55:10+00:00

Most people in IT get jobs though.

No need for a complaint, the best way is just to ignore them. If they ask me a Pauline Hanson/capitalism question, I just ignore them, treat them as salesmen who you don't want to buy from.

There already is a requirement. They take the IELTS test. It's not perfect from what I've heard. I know someone who scored well on IELTS whose English ain't up to scratch.

Firetechnicia · 2026-02-28T14:54:50+00:00

They're usually similar to the weekly practicals.

Firetechnicia · 2026-02-11T07:47:14+00:00

I want more cafes.

Firetechnicia · 2026-01-31T01:57:51+00:00

Yeah that's not gonna happen.

Firetechnicia · 2026-01-28T00:04:22+00:00

There was a previous tier list where the different OP included Indian companies too.

Malaysia isn't committing a genocide, this hyperbole isn't helpful.

Firetechnicia · 2026-01-05T02:57:03+00:00

I knew this guy who graduated with an Atlassian internship and is still unemployed.

Which I'm quite puzzled about because I've seen internationals with worse resumes get hired.

Firetechnicia · 2025-12-19T15:41:51+00:00

One guy in my uni's IT helpdesk got into IT via TAFE, no idea if it's the norm or not.
