    Hi -
    I am Smita, currently in Chennai, am married and have a 2 year old baby. We have decided on migration to Australia and have initiated the PR processing.

    I am a software professional(Mainframes) with over 5 yrs experience, currently working in an MNC. Since my husband is a business person, I would be the primary applicant on the visa.I have a few questions regarding work and life in Australia. I came across this particular forum and found it very interesting/helpful/friendly. It would be great if someone could help me out by answering a few questions -
    1) What are the job opportunities for Mainframe professionals? On browsing thru job search sites, I find that most of the Mainframe jobs are in Sydney and i also realize that they are not as prelavent as Java/J2EE requirements....Are there in mainframe openings in Melbourne as well?
    2) Looking into salary figures, what would be a decent salary per annum for a mainframe person?
    3) What are the possibilities of getting a job in Australia from here in India?Do recruiters conducts such kind of telephonic interviews?

    Any suggestions/information would be helpful.
    Thankyou...

    HI Smita,

    All the best for your visa application. I do not have much info regarding Software side of business.....

    SEEK - Australia's no. 1 jobs, employment, career and recruitment site is the best website that gives you an idea of what each professional can earn. I am not aware of Aussie companies doing telephone interviews as in the USA.

    The process here is that they take a copy of your visa before they can even interview you.

    Maybe other members who have more contacts in this filed can give you more advice..

    Regards,

    C

    Hi there!
    I've found out that Mainframe jobs are more in Sydney than Melbourne,and java seems to be more popular.For average salaries in IT in Melbourne,visit
    SEEK Salary Centre - Information Technology in Melbourne Salaries

    Some companies do offer telephonic interviews,but a final face-to-face interview is almost always required.
    Good luck!
