Migrating to another country is a big decision! It takes courage, determination and tenacity to leave one country and build a new life in another.

Information on the process of application for migration to Australia is not covered here, but you can find all you need at www.immi.gov.au, the Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship website.

True Blue Migration will tell what you won’t read on a government website, won’t find in a glossy colour brochure or be told at a migration seminar. It will tell you what government bureaucrats and migration agents don’t think is important, but which we know is because we’ve been there.

The real nitty gritty of life in a new country will be featured here by those that have walked the road, done the hard yards and come out at the end. It will talk about people’s real experiences, dispel some myths and give you some good laughs all at the same time....

We’ll talk about what others won’t and share some great stories..... so stay close...

Skills Shortage

As the economy emerges from the downturn Australia is on a drive to attract skills. Recently the Department of Immigration has issued its proposed list of occupations in demand. At the same time Skills Australia has released its National Workforce Development Strategy that:

"While Australia is comparatively strong in operational management, Australian organisation lag in the areas of people management and the deployment of skills, significantly behind the best performing countries.

Australia ranks low in almost all people management dimensions ... Australian business must improve their human resource-related practices with a target of attracting, retaining and promoting the best talent and more importantly addressing poor performance."
