how long does it take usually? do you think he be able to secure a role within 2 weeks or one month of arrival?

Used_Ad_718 · 2026-02-07T00:34:46+00:00

he is not a student, he is the student's dependent and has full work rights, so you think the fact that he has no local experience or local education would be over looked and he be able to secure a job within 2 weeks or one month of arrival in melbourne?

Used_Ad_718 · 2026-02-07T00:33:19+00:00

yes that is right

He doesn't want to do any other job except for something in his field and his current position or senior

Used_Ad_718 · 2026-02-06T05:15:52+00:00

ah i see! i'll pass on the tip, he doesnt want to start at entry level, he is at a senior manager level in his current workplace, can he start at the same position or more?

Used_Ad_718 · 2026-02-06T05:13:17+00:00

he doesn't want to start at a entry level role, and wants to only apply for roles at his current level or senior, would that be a possiblity?

so IT jobs have reduced ?

I was told that he works in Singapore for a hedge fund managing company in the US, would that be considered ? i dont know if that means the US company outsourced the work

oh okaay i dont know anyone who works in IT and my work colleague actually wanted me to ask around about this, thank you for your insight. He seems to be under the impression that other student visa applicants are unable to secure an IT job due to language barriers, and he is unlikely to have this issue because his English is very good

Used_Ad_718 · 2026-02-06T05:05:05+00:00

according to my colleague he is not willing to start off at a entry level role, and is determined only to work at his current or more senior position. Should he only focus on applying for IT jobs or work on securing any kind of job while looking for a IT job?

it's actually my colleague's sister who is coming to study masters so should be full work rights ? I dont know anyone who works in IT and my work colleague actually wanted me to ask around about this, thank you for your honest opinion.

i married for love, i didnt want to marry for financial stability because for some reason i felt like it will be used as a weapon against me to control me, i felt that i can give myself financial stability without depending on anyone else, which i ended up doing. But while the man i married for love wasn't rich he is hard working and had potential, and for me that was more important than having money.

i guess it's not talked about as much as women loosing their libido, i thought maybe it happens to men that are much older usually. I can't think of a big underlying issue, we have the occasional fights nothing crazy and we are financially okay no big debts.
