If I want to live in Australia...some advice needed

Hello

I'm 26 years old polish male and I want to move to Australia.
What should I do and what should I know? How many money I should have to start there? What chance do I have to find a job? I'm an anthropologist (ethnologist) with a newspaer experience.
Could you tell me about costs of living there (I'm particulary interested in Brisbane)?

it would do you a lot of good to learn english.

I want to live in paradise but will it ever happen?

First of all you need a Visa.

It seems like he speaks (writes) quite well already. But it's always good to improve language skills of course.

VISA to paradise, thanks for advice :-)

depends on your means and how much you earn.

the way things are going you're better paying a people smuggler and claiming asylum when getting to australian shores. it seems quicker than trying to get citizenship/permanent residency.

to do a job tig welding

Australia is not any more a paradise.

what makes you say that?

well im living here and I really dont consider this country as the best in the world. For sure its better here as long ur a PR then in Poland but u can find better country in Europe to live.

So tell us the bad sides of Australia...

No Comment.

lol you can expect some racists all over the world..... nothing unusual.

I merely responding to
or to anyone thinks AUS is a paradise.

No country where deadly spiders can come up from the loo and nip you when you're having a dump can be called a paradise IMHO;)

The climate's great, the lifestyle is fantastic, the people are a good laugh but there's just too many things capable of killing me.

haha , good point! :D

One of my students possesses such a copybook with Australian motifs.






I wonder, is it an original invention of a Polish stationery stuff producer, or was it copied from an English speaking country design?

Could such murals with chained Aborigines ever appear on a copybook of an Australian student?

have you been to australia or did you just google "racism+australia"?

very rich from someone who is the first to point out generalisations about his great turkey.

you are anthropologist and am a nuclear rocket scientist dont bring your sorry unemployed ass here

the only ass here is you...

I might have to google, because up to now all I know is that Australia does have a very "stern" stance on immigration. Since you're there, what's you take on it?

australia has a stern immigration policy on illegal entries yes.

but on the otherside we have been handing out permanent residency like swap cards to students (mainly indian) that come here to study in areas that are needed like hairdressers and chefs.

i think what flogtime25 was referring to was more the colonial treatment of aborigines and subsequent treatment over the years.

apart from that, i dont see australia as any more/less racist than any ther country i have been to.

That might change a bit with the AUD going up...


Or rather, the Euro and the USD tanking....

nah, the government has cracked down on college's that were exploiting the "loophole".

the students never intended to work as hairdressers/chefs, they just wanted the permanent residency.

to apply for a skilled visa you need your profession in Australian skills shortage list

anthropologist does not seem to be there, so you will have to secure a job offer if you want to move

The best thing 2 do is go 2 the Australian Embassy and get the details from them,as the criteria has changed in the last 2 months for conditions 2 emigrate 2 Australia.

we don't want polish crap in Australia !

Hi,

I'm Polish and live in Brisbane. In regards to skills if you have a profession then you will be regarded highly. I am a civil engineer, and there is a shortage of engineers in the country to keep up with the country's infrastructure requirements. However to satisfy the engineering requirements here, it helps if you are become a member of the Australian Institute of Engineers. LOL also it helps if you speak English. In addition to engineering, health and medical professionals, teachers are also on demand.

The professions I mentioned above are on the critical skills list for Australia.

I can live in the two best parts of the world Poland/Europe and Australia. Summer for Brisbane, and winter in Poland.

Just curious about PingPong, I hope you're not Asian as I don't want Asian crap in Australia.

I can't really help you, but you schould login to znajomapolonia.com for some advice. It's a community portal, where you can meet reliable Poles that live spreaded all over the world (including Australia ofcourse). znajomapolonia.com associates people that profess worths pruposed by Catholic Church - and that's huuuge advance, because you won't be deceived in any way (you can realy trust them). They helped me, when I planned my trip to States.
