#3 - Hasan: Importance of communication in finding a job in Australia

I first met Hasan at the end of 2020, after he’d completed his Master of Engineering Management in Australia. Finding professional employment can be tough for people on a 485-graduate visa, with no local experience and limited overseas experience, but Hasan was able to secure a rewarding job in a large corporate.

He attributes his success to developing his English language skills, being willing to take advice and upskilling in the software applications required for his industry.  With the guidance he received from OBP Australia, he went from not getting any interviews to having a choice between multiple offers.

Hasan talks about his:

• dream to come to Australia
• difficulties with the English language
• barriers to securing work
• software upskilling
• job seeking strategy changes which led to him being offered multiple roles at the same time.
