I’ll sleep well tonight
Posted on Tuesday 29th July 2008
However today I received good news. My post has been confirmed and will be signing contracts within the week. This will be for six months and be extremely busy now the SA State Government seems to be intent on closing many rural hospitals.
As if this wasn’t good enough, since I will be working directly for the SA Department of Health, the contract will include a 457 Temporary Business Visa. The significant advantage of this type of visa is the 4 year term which will come as a welcome relief from having to renew every year. I’ll be happy not to have to go under the microscope down at the immigration office so frequently. Hopefully by the time this next visa runs out I’ll be eligible for fast-track permanent residency.
So thankfully, after a few tense months, it looks like I am safe for another year.
Excellent news sir. Hope you enjoyed your rest…
Rick, is the job in intensive care?
Feb to Aug next year will doing retrievals, then Aug to Feb 2010 back at the RAH ICU. I haven’t planned thereafter … yet!
That is excellent news Rick. Some people are very welcome on the fast track list… you are one of them!
