How Many Out There Would Work In Australia IF You Could?
This is a serious question...........
I have been led to believe that there may be an opportunity coming up for Engineers from outside Australia, to work for one of our Major Australian Airlines.
There would not be a problem with work permits etc, and assuming your Licence can be converted easily, how many would actually be interested?
Those that are interested, why would you be interested? That is the money, lifestyle, other reasons???

Bus429,
Thank you for your reply.
As I said I believe the offer will be coming, NOT yet on offer.
Just trying to find out whether or not there are many interested, and why?
IF you are interested, where are you now, I don't expect you to post your address, just which Country? And why would you be interested in moving to Australia to work? I believe it is the best place on Earth, but what are the reasons others would like to work here???
Best regards,

lame, interesting question, however to be tempted away from the UK the deal would have to be worthwhile. In all seriousness the pay would have to be not less than 100000 Aus$, at todays rate that is about 37000GBP, plus other benefits. Would the airline in question be able to offer this?

Reasons : A/ Climate.
B/ people (no airs & graces).
C/ Standard of living.
D/ A good place to raise my girl.
E/ good restaurants,beer,wine.

I would be very interested,currently hold UK
A,C & 'X'Elect & A&P, working A300's.
The dough would have to be a consideration,

My earlier experience with Aussie recruiting suggests they will be looking for low-wage "starters."
In 1989 Ansett arrived in town on a world-wide recruiting drive, doing walk-in interviews. They had plenty of jobs for LAEs with minimum cover to start at the bottom. The pay was too low for a family to live on though. Fair enough, they wanted young folks to go out and make a start at the bottom in the normal way.
If I was young and single, never mind the starting pay or the location, I'd be off like a shot.

G'Day lame (and other posters). I wish I know where you got your info from for this post. There is not many engineers working in Aust, getting $A100,000PA. Some senior managers may, some overtime hounds may and no one in GA is. Most of the gingerbeers that I know that work for the majors are unhappy and ready to leave. So, not to throw a wet blanket on anyone but, if you are earning this kind of money where you are, stay put......

I courted with Ansett back in 89 when they tried recruiting in UK. The money they offered then was similar to UK salary and they claimed that I would have a higher standard of living in Sydney or Melbourne. It was all a bit acedemic in the end as I failed the Licence exam. They offered me a mech's job, but Mrs Growler was none too keen.
I have since obtained CASA licence with 757, 737, 767 and A320 type ratings. I would love to go there, but now with 3 kids in tow I would have an even harder job convincing Mrs G. I would like to keep updated on developments though LAME just in case.
Reasons for :
climate
good place to bring up kids??
quality of life (if the soaps are to be believed!!)

This would depedn on several factors:-
Would I be able to persuade Mrs Jetfueldrinker that it would be a good idea to go to Aus as we are not exactly 21 any more
What the relocation package would consist of
Would I really have to take my teenage kids with me?
Would I get the asking price for my house and what the property price is like in Aus
How much agro would I have converting a BCAR A & C license to a CASA license
What the salary vs cost of living is like with the potential new employers
And if I got there and discovered that Aus was not what I thought it would be, what then?
There are far too many ifs and buts, but if I were 20 years younger..........who knows?
