Australia

[Dave Phillips-10]

Any Aussies on this list?  I am considering relocating to Australia to do
ColdFusion work through an Independent Skilled Worker visa.  I am wondering
what the salary packages are like there, and specifically for a senior level
developer (I have 10+ years experience with ColdFusion).

 

Thanks!

 

Dave

There are some large development shops that might be looking for senior
folk. A lot of the CF work here is permanent work but depending on where
you end up there are communities of freelance/contractors.

Oz is very capital-city-centric so outside the main state's capitals
there is little activity. We are a CF-based Hosting Partner and our CF
coding is more application/utility biased so I don't have a good
perspective of the general development area. If no-one gets in touch
with you, via this List or privately then drop me a line and I will send
you a few firm's names.....

Thanks Kym.  Permanent work is what I would be looking for, so that's great.
I'll let you know if I hear anything (and you're right - haven't heard
anything yet) :)

Thanks!

Dave

I hope it's not inappropriate to link to this in the list (and My
apologies Mike D if so); most CF jobs in Oz will be advertised in Seek
(Seek is The Thing for IT jobs in Oz):

http://www.seek.com.au/

Search for "ColdFusion" as well as "Cold Fusion" as people still
haven't figured out how to write it. Most CF jobs are in Sydney;
whether this is a good or bad thing is really down to your opinion of
Sydney. For example:

http://it.seek.com.au/users/apply/index.ascx?Sequence=23&PageNumber=1&JobID=14402615&

Experience with PHP, .NET and other web-related technology often
features in the jobs that come up here.

[Kumar, Prashant (2)]

 
Hi All,
I am a coldfusion programmer with 5 yrs. of experience. I am planning to
move to Australia from Singapore, as Singapore does not have coldfusion
requirements.
Is it possible/difficult to get contract/permanent job in Australia.
Will clients sponsor/provide my work permit?
I am applying from Singapore itself but all my applications are getting
rejected as I am not having valid work permit to work in Australia.
Does any one has idea?
Can any body suggest?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Regards
Prashanth Kumar Madanu
