    My Wife is here 6 weeks and just cannot find a job. She has 8 Years experience in finance and banking. She has worked for a two of the biggest fund management companies in Dublin while also working for years with a small construction company in accounts payable, accounts receivable, etc.

    She has applied for 35 jobs, got replies from 5 and 2 interviews. We've changed the resume 4 or 5 times to actually suit the position she was applying for but still no interview , never mind a job :) Getting really worried. Some of the recruiters are saying she must have Australian Experience plus sap, myob experience.

    Anybody with some useful information would be much appreciated.

    Try putting a add on gumtree, or like somebody I know done, she got tarted up to the nines and went into the city and went in to a few coffee shops/cafes and got chatted up by a few high flyers. She told them that she was looking for work etc..she had a few offers at the end of the day.

    I would do the same only my facial hair and adams apple might destroy the illusion...
