ex-raf husband seeks jobs in cairns region?

Question

my husband is currently in the raf due to come out next year for when we get our visas but im worried he won't find a job. he currently works at heights on ariels and with communication cables. Should we spend the extra money and pay for someone to find us a job or chance it when we get there

Answer 1

Always plenty of jobs in Cairns - don't worry about that !
If you have the $ to spend, yes go through an agency, if not chance it, he'll be employed within a week.

Answer 2

If he still enjoys the work he was doing in the RAF, speak to Defence Recruiting to see about a transfer to the RAAF (or another service). They're phone number is 13 19 01 or their website is www.defencejobs.gov.au.

Anyone with recognised trades qualifications shuld have no problem getting a job in their area. Other employment websites we use here are:

www.seek.com.au
You can browse by region and employment section in each

Answer 3

no don't leave things to chance, iv'e been to cairns , it's quite a small town and caters very much towards the tourist industry, but if your husband has qualification's in his work he will stand a good chance of finding work, he would be wise to do a job search with the australian authorities,he will have more luck and be properly advised!! good luck, ps cairns is a great place to be!
