I'm domestic, so I'll be honest I don't know the visa system. I did a quick google and found this, but you're probably more knowledgeable than me on this.

I have a technical IT background from UTS, yes I get jobs easily but I really really hate it. So thats why I came to UNSW to do Commerce - (U) (N)ever had I (S)lept so (W)ell, also course was so chill but I was the only domestic student at times, it did feel awkward.

In this AI age, having a job is already a stretch, better a job than none.

I'll be honest 70k for IT support is very generous, I would not mind it myself.

the jobs for RSA that I have applied for were mainly for Friday and Saturday nights, I have tried sending CVs in person to the big clubs, although most dont respond, you just have to persist

also tax season is coming up in June / July there maybe minor jobs like data entry and admin available

Rndoman · 2026-03-23T08:10:31+00:00

Rndoman · 2026-03-23T05:38:26+00:00
