Aged care has fab hours (6am-2pm) Is what i'm working and Monday to Friday!!! love it. You might die from the heat in December! Just hope where you end up working has good air conditioning!!! Only joking you should be used to heat from working in kitchens.:wacko: Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Melly39 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 My oh is a chef and we have gained SS from WA after a very long wait since lodging our visas in Dec 2009! Meds and police checks finalised now just the wait for our CO to grant!! Hope to move out in June 2012. Can anyone recommend any good catering recruitment agencies in Perth. Hubby is interested in looking at FIFO chef positions in the mines. Anyone got any good advice for job hunting in Perth? Thanks in advance :-)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
