It has been a bit cool overnight and in the mornings, but the days get to be quite warm, if not pretty darn hot! I always make the mistake of dressing in a heavy shirt in the morning and then go out and become so hot during the day! There is occasionally a fresh breeze during the day, but I seriously doubt you'd need any more than a light cardigan/long sleeved shirt if that is the case... It is really lovely weather (if not still too dry) at this time of year.
Enjoy your holiday :-)

Nursing is one of those industries where you can get a job basically anywhere, so either destination would suit. However there are some things to consider - The crime rates on the Gold Coast are higher I believe. Housing is much more expensive. The main industry is tourism, so you'd have to consider what your line of work is too. It is my personal opinion that unless I lived in the outer suburbs of either destination, then neither would be suitable. There are plenty of other options in south east Qld to chose from. But if you were to chose somewhere like the Gold Coast, then seriously look at the hinterland area eg Tamborine mountain. For Brisbane, try the outer areas like Ipswich or on the other side Redcliffe.

The locals will tell you it's cold. They have no idea what "cold" is.
Put it this way: if they get a frost, it will make the nightly news (seriously). It will never, ever, ever snow. Snow is something they see on American TV shows.
Practical advice: don't bother with scarves, gloves, heavy overcoats, or lots of layering. Most people who live in Brisbane or the Gold Coast don't even own this type of clothing.
A light jacket will be enough to survive even the coldest winter days up there.

The latest official forecasts come from the Bureau of Meteorology
The Gold Coast forecast is here:

In general it is cooler in the mornings inland than it is near the coast. It is possible to get frosts on the higher ground. During the day, however, you can expect maximum temperatures in the low to mid 20s which is very pleasant (70-80°F if you don't use Celsius). I was up there yesterday in shorts and a t-shirt and was out till after 11pm without feeling cold.

gets cool overnight - but I wouldnt say cold enough to put a wooly jumper, ugh boots or beanie on.
depends on what you classify as cold!
you are still able to walk around with shorts, skirts, thongs (on your feet), t-shirt, singlet, whatever pleases you and probably chuck some jeans on at night - if going out on the town......
go swimming with the cool clear water on your body - and sunbake if looking for a tan still.
ENJOY!
