Finding unskilled mining jobs in Australia

by Ross
(Australia)

I am from New Zealand and went to Australia first in 2005 and looked for a mining job in Australia. I went around the agencies in Perth but they all wanted experienced people. In process wasting 1000 dollars in accommodation and food.

I then went out to Kalgoorlie and still had no luck. I luckily remembered a mate was in W.A. and to my luck was in Kalgoorlie, over the phone he gave me some company names that were hiring. I went around and had a full time job in 5 minutes.

I know how hard it can be to get a job and have put this website up to help other Aussies and Kiwis to get a job in the mines. http://www.getajobinthemines.com

Good luck,
Ross
