OK, here it goes, the call for help: I need a job.

First, the background. Ive been living long term in Japan (7 years) and now that Ive come back Im finding it impossible to get a job. I have a polished resume, a variety of experience and in almost 2 months havent got so much as 1 interview. My fiance is packing up and coming down to Aus in a month or so and I really have to be earning before then. Time is running out and need to get something fast.

So my big question is, do you know of any jobs that are available where you work? Maybe you know of positions opening up, or someone leaving, or just that your company needs someone. Below are my skills and experience.

Degree in management (Marketing)

6 years magazine writing/photography, mostly cars and motorbike mags

teaching

good skills in writing, researching, organization, speaking, business understanding.

Im ideally hoping for something low level in business/marketing/office support or similar, but at this point im open to any ideas whiich involve a full time salary.

I live in the eastern suburbs / bayside area, and hope to work there or CBD

If you know of anything, please let me know or let your boss know about me. I can be contacted at [email protected]

Thanks in Advance,

Jeremy

Oh, also, if you have any ideas out of the ordinary for finding jobs, that would help too. Cheers

the guy has a degree in marketing and 6 years professional writing experience and you wont hire him cause you dont like his email address....

...Its amazing how you can bullshit through your ass on a piece of paper and get a job because of it...reminds me of "Catch me if you Can", where he makes up a pile of fake Harvard degrees and the guy gets a job running the hospital...

I'd hire the guy just for having a cool email address.....if I liked him that is ....wouldnt' hire him if he was black though.....lol

We have a full time admin type role going at the moment. In the finance area, responsible for arranging commissions payments to mortgage brokers, dealing with commission enquiries and problems, liaising with lenders and so on. We're based in Collins Street, 2 mins from Southern Cross station.

Looking at about $35k-40k+ super. Young company soon to be the biggest mortgage broker aggregator in the country. It's also a place that once you're in you get first dibs at any other roles which might arise.

I agree with the email address thing, too. Personally it doesn't bother me, but I know a lot of companies will do a initial elimination of applicants based on things like spelling, email addresses and the like.

Thanks for the feedback. Naturally, I have more than one email. And the S13 is long gone too ; (

I don't mean to be rude, but I wouldn't be hiring someone with more than one email address.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
