[AusNOG] Sysadmin opportunities in Melbourne?

[Paul Jones]

I was thinking the same!!
We had to spend 10% of the guys salary on training, 3k on agent fees, prove that we had tried to employ locally (the guy responded to a local add on seek.com.au, he’s from Estonia!), pay him a generous salary to prove he’s not a slave, etc etc…
I don’t know how people think this is easy or cheap.
Perhaps we just drew the short end of the stick?

Paul.

Thanks for the comment Skeeve,

I also got sponsored last year on a 457 while being in the country on a Working Holiday visa. There's no difference nowadays. That went all pretty smooth within less than two weeks. There wasn't even a Migration Agent utilised and the bureaucrism was surprisingly minor.

The business's fee would be three hundred Aussie dollars or so. The bigger chunk is on the applicants side with a grand per head.

Cheers

It is hard to do a 457 in country... he would likely have to leave and come back.. and a delay of 3 months, and 3-4k.... plus the company being approved.....

AND there would be a need for him... something you can't find local, and you need to prove you tried.

Hey guys,

Happy new Year!

Is someone on list currently looking for Sysadmins (permanent role) in the Melbourne area? One of my mates is currently looking for job opportunities down there. He also would have the requirement of getting sponsored on a 457 visa - which I am afraid will be quite a hurdle to overcome.

Being not that long in the country his network of contacts is not that developed yet so I'd like to check out this channel too if you don't mind.


Background;
Certified IT Systems integrator apprenticeship by certified Educational institution in Germany (ACS rates this as Cert VI to Cert VII, 3 years apprenticeship)
VMware vSphere
Veeam
Linux
Nagios
Citrix XenApp
Microsoft AD
Windows Server
A healthy amount of campus Firewalling and campus Network Engineering
Nice and easy character



Any input off-list would be highly appreciated. CV and more detailed information can be provided off-list.


Cheers,
Maik
