i need a real job

i've been here down under for 8mons now and i would say i've been living a really good life... thanks to mah family of course, especially mah brother whom provides me with most of mah needs... if only juz for mahself, i would not ask for more... i'm having a great time living life like a student again....

1

YES! student life... that was me for almost 8mons now, nothing to worry, nothing to think about anything but mahself... and yes, this was mah primary reason why am here in aussie in the first place, that is of course for the fact that i'll finally be joining mah family here... 

and slowly, life's reality starts to catch up and would sink deep within me... times travels so fast that i am neglecting mah responsibilities back home... i cannot continue relying with mah family to bridge what i should be fulfilling in the first place...  i have been here long enough for me to finally stand on mah own... to start with, i should now need to have a job...

 seems so easy being said than done, right? with mah current degree and a ton of working experience back home... i can easily nail a job that i want... but after several months of attempting breaking the job market... i find mahself with no luck, it seems to evade me regularly... i guess i might have been asleep when our Lord showered His luck upon us...

  I really dont understand what's wrong with mah qualifications on why they denied me of mah job... that was not until i started calling back the companies and agencies whom emailed me with rejection letters... i found out that having me is not a priority because of mah VISA... yes! mah visa... they put me at the back of the list because of mah STUDENT VISA...


yes, i am here with a student visa only... that is because i thought that getting a job here would be easier even with mah VISA restrictions... and nonetheless, i dont have any grudges with the companies who turned me down because of mah visa... i sincerely understand their needs and i know that with mah restrictions, it might hinder me to do mah job well...

now, 2011 just started and am still searching for that elusive job... but my hopes are still high that i'll finally get a job soon... I have mah utmost trust in Him and that He is with me through this journey... so for everyone whom i love so much back home, sooner, we'll have all our wishes once i nailed a job....

currently mah father and mah brother are working with mah visa upgrade so that nothing can hinder me from finding and taking a job that i really want...

so for the meantime, while mah visa is still in process, how i wish that someone would finally give me a job.... i need to end this happy-go-luck-nothing-to-worry-bum life and start breaking mah bones again...
 for anyone whose interested to know some of mah credentials, here are some...
  • finished mah metallurgical engineering degree from a premier engineering school in Phils with flying colors...
  • currently taking mah MBA degree in one of Aussie's prestige uni with distinction marks
  • worked 7years in a BPO industy where mah field of expertise are in:
    • workforce planning and management
    • capacity and resource planning
    • financial forecasting
    • customer support and relationship management
    • performance management
  • mah public professional work profile can be viewed from here. Thanks to LinkedIn.
so until then, i can just only wish that someone can help me find a real job...
