New graduate looking for public sector work in Melbourne
I am Nicolyn Tan, a final year podiatry student studying in New South Wales. I am an international student and will be seeking a job when I finish in late June 2009. Am thinking of moving to Melbourne and hoping to find a job in the public system as I think it'll be a good place to start.. Please let me know if there are any vacancies available!
Re: New graduate looking for public sector work in Melbourne
Nicolyn,
Eastern Health, in Melbourne's East will have a graduate position available from July, initially for a 6 months trial, but likely to be continuing. the Position will be based at Maroondah Hospital in Ringwood providing predominantly inpatient services, supported by 4 other podiatrists at the site (EFT 2.8) and the other 7 podiatrists across the health service. The position will be advertised on the EH jobs site, for which you can register interest and seek and I will also post a link on this site. Being an international student Visa arrangements etc. would need to be in place.

Re: New graduate looking for public sector work in Melbourne
Hello back to Mr TuckerSM,
Thank you for responding to my posting so quickly. I am quite keen on securing a job within the Eastern Health organisation that you mentioned. I did check on the website for Eastern Health, but there was nothing available for podiatry grade 1 positions yet. I have registered my interest on the Eastern Health webpage already... Is there a contact person whom I should be forwarding my CV and cover letter to?
Regarding the visa requirements, I will be applying for permanent residency and will be granted a bridging visa in the interim period before I get my actual PR status, so working should not be an issue.
