ITT: I suck at job hunting, do you?
Rizzo:
I'm currently residing in Auckland, New Zealand and planning on moving to Sydney, Australia in January. However, I am kinda keen to speed this process up. Since I'm an Australian citizen already I figured I'd start applying for jobs as a librarian in Sydney from here.
Is this a good idea? How likely do you think I am to get an interview? If I do get one would it be worth flying over for a weekend (at a cost of around $500 NZD) to do the interview?
I think yes on all of the above but I'm interested in hearing others points of view.
BrittanyMarie:
i'd recommend that yes, apply, but ask if you can do a telephone interview if it gets to that point. my company does that all the time which is awesome so we have people from all over the country who have a chance where normally they wouldn't
Jimmy the Squid:
Sounds like a good idea to me, you could stay at my place! Or not. Whatever.
In related job hunting news I applied for a job at a bookshop last night. This morning I got a call asking me to come in for an interview. This is pretty fucking awesome because it's my first interview after 8 months of looking for job. I'm going tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully the job will be pretty cool and they will be ok with my already planned and set in stone holidays at the end of October.
Lunchbox:
Give it a go, Riz. You can't really lose anything.
I'm not sure many places would be keen for a phone interview but maybe it would be a good idea to come visit for job hunting purposes beforehand, as I know that library jobs are really hard to come by here.
A Wet Helmet:
Today was the first day of my new job today. Hopefully, I won't have to be posting in this thread anymore.
