duyentranvan - that was a mature helpful response from a not so professional pilot !

onezeroonethree - honestly as a low timer there are far and few jobs outside of your home country for you. Once you get some time up your sleeve then you will get the option of expat work. Even if you did land one of these low timer jobs outside of Oz, they would most likely use and abuse you so the whole thing wouldnt be worth it. My advice is to stick to your own backyard and build time there, when I got my CPL there were no jobs at all in Australia, in the end I used some money I saved and bought a C152 and started a flight school and air charter business some 3000km from home. At the time I was not alone at doing this... not that I would repeat it, as it was a hard way to get flight time running a business at a young age and all.

good luck.
