Now, I believe that you have heard this feedback before.
”You didn't get the job because you don't have the permanent residency.”
Do you think that reason is true?
Hi everyone. I'm Thea from acejob.com.au
helping skilled migrants and international students get jobs and live a better life.
And in today's video, I will explain to you whether the reason of PR is true or not,
and I will also share with you the strategies of how to get a job
when you haven't got the permanent residency yet
Stay with me to the end of this video
because I’m the living proof of this and I will share with you my story.
Now, do you believe the reason you didn't get a job is because you don't have permanent residency?
I can confirm with you that it is not the real reason
because the fact is you don't need PR to get a skilled job and
a skilled job here is a full-time job, a permanent
or contract role where you receive salary
and superannuation while a part-time job is a job that you receive salary per hour
and no superannuation.
I want to tell you the fact that many job seekers got jobs
without PR, including myself.
So I was on a temporary visa when I got my full-time job.
And until now I'm still on a temporary visa and I'm working legally.
Or you can see that many of your friends got a job
when they still have a temporary visa
and many of my clients got a jobs with a graduate visa
or with the temporary visa and maybe you also receive some interviews yourself as well,
then finally they told you that you didn't get the job
because you don't have the permanent residency.
Does it make sense to you? It doesn't make sense to me at all because it's not the real reason.
It’s just the excuse that a company uses
because they don't want to confront.
They don't want to hurt you with the real reasons.
And for you it is also easier to accept that you don't get a job
because of the permanent residency not because of your competencies, right?
If you want to play the victim game,
then you can accept that reason.
But you also need to accept the fact that you will never get a job
if you don't have the permanent residency, but if you are different,
you have a growth mindset, you want to land the job you want then
I want to share with you the real reason lies within your application.
So you don't get a job because you cannot prove that you are qualified for the job.
It's not because you don't have permanent residency.
I don't know about you. But now the problem is easier for me to fix
if the real reason was the permanent residency.
It would be harder and it would take longer for me to fix the problem
because it would take at least a few years for me to get a PR
and by that time my temporary visa would have expired.
And I would have left the country before getting the PR and getting the job I want.
Having said that, the right problem to fix now is not the PR but it’s your application
so you need to make sure that you have the resume that can pass
the ATS - the Applicant Tracking System, impress the hiring managers
and land as many interviews as you can.
Now the ATS is the first gate to the whole application process
because if you cannot get in, you cannot reach the hiring managers,
you cannot get interviews and finally no job offers for you.
And the role of the ATS is to remove 90% of the applicants.
So if you cannot beat the robots,
you will never reach the hiring managers and land interviews or job offers for you.
If you don't know how to beat the bots then make sure that you check out this video
right here where I talk about detailed step how to beat the system
and I will also put the link up here.
So make sure that you check it out after finishing this video.
Now the second gate that your resume needs to get through is a bit more challenging,
that is the hiring managers.
The biggest mistake that many job seekers make is that they write very generic resumes.
They just claim that they have some skills or some experience on the resume,
but they are still not convincing to hiring managers.
So my tip for you is you need to back up your claims.
You need to use specific achievements with tangible results
to make it more convincing to hiring managers.
Now, if you don't know how to do it then make sure that you check out this video right here
where share with you the secrets that the hiring managers would never tell you
because you need to know their secrets in order to convince them to hire you.
So make sure that you check out this video after finishing this one.
Now, I guess that you have applied for jobs online
before and you have seen that together with your application,
you need to answer some questions.
And one of these questions is about your visa, about your work rights.
These questions are to screen out the unqualified candidates.
So if you don't have the appropriate visa or you don't have the full work rights
then you will be screened out by these questions even without opening your application or your resume.
So at that time no matter how good your application is, you will still be screened out.
If your visa has some constraints and you are afraid that
it may remove you from some job opportunities,
then you shouldn't apply online because you will be screened out by the visa question.
You should use a better approach which is approaching the companies directly.
So what you need to do is you should collect the list of companies
and hiring managers that you want to target
and then you search for
their email addresses or LinkedIn contacts
and then you should approach them directly talking about a jobs,
but you need to be skillful with this approach.
Otherwise, you may ruin the relationship that you could have with the hiring managers.
So if you don't know how to do this approach effectively then make
sure that you check out this video right here
and I will also put the link up here for you.
