Hi,

I'm Kenneth from Malaysia. Graduated from University of South Australia and recently moved to Melbourne (therefore, my network consists of a number of my relatives). I'm currently looking for graduate/entry level/junior job in the finance industry.

I had uploaded my resume in career portals such as seek, mycareer, careerone and etc and also joined linkedin but no avail.

I've been posting out numerous resumes to companies for the past 2 months but only managed to land 2 interviews each month. Should I continue to do the same till I land a job because I read somewhere that someone takes nearly half a year to get a job whereas some takes a much shorter time. Hope that someone here provide me advice on this...


P/S: I am authorized to work in Australia

Thanks

At least you are getting interviews every month compared to people not getting any calls. It seems that there might not be a lot of jobs to the number of applicants. So it might be a very competitive market at the moment. I think you will just need to continue what you are doing. However, have you ever considered maybe doing some other type of networking? Do a google search to find the meet up.com for Australia. Then search under the Melbourne area. There is a group called "Network of Accounting & Finance Professionals in Melbourne". Sometimes people get jobs through networking rather than applying for jobs online.
