Wholeheartedly agree, my background was in HR but found it to be a closed shop in Adelaide, jobs went to a small circle of people who knew each other

Exactly, Adelaide is a relatively small place and the majority of HR people know each other so networking is essential to break into the loop

You'll need to join the AHRI

Many of the suburbs in Adelaide are like this, Adelaide is thought of as a place to retire by other states

Lived there for 3 years, nice suburb, very good pimary school

Central Business District

Buyers want the lowest price sellers want the highest price, at the end of the day the buyer holds the best hand in a declining market, when the market is going up it’s the other way round. If you ‘re selling and stick your feet in in a declining market don’t blame the buyer, if you’re buying in an increasing market don’t blame the seller, at some point we’ve all been on both sides whether is buying or selling a car or haggling over something at a car boot sale. We included fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, beds and all other kitchen appliances toaster, kettle etc

Don’t mean to dampen anyone’s spirits but Adelaide is not an IT city if you want relatively stable employment in this field you might find you will have to move to Melbourne or Sydney. I believe there are problems with the work situation in Canberra where most of the government departments are located. I spent 3 ½ years in Adelaide, looking back now that was probably too long and I should have moved earlier, I was in and out of work until I eventually moved to Melbourne then Brissie. The work situation in Adelaide has always been poor, it’s considered a backwater in other states, there may be some work but is generally limited in each sector. Being such a small city there is a tendency for people in the various sectors to know each other so jobs get given to somebody who knows somebody etc. All I can advice is that if you are struggling to find work in Adelaide but want to stay in Aus don’t stay in Adelaide too long, widen your scope to the other states, many people commute interstate flying back to their home city at weekends. Good luck

Having looked around numerous rentals in and around Adelaide although there were good ones the quality of some left a lot to be desired. From a practical point of view I think it would be far better on initial arrival to stay in short term accommodation, at least until you have had a look around some of the suburbs, rather than committing yourself to a 6 month let and then having to try and get out of it because you don’t like the area, school, location etc. There are some good caravan parks dotted around Adelaide as well as holiday accommodation, although more expensive for a short period they would give you time to get over the jet lag and as a base for looking around for something more permanent and suitable. Looking at it from another point of view knowing what you know about the UK would you rent somewhere in a city in the UK if you had never been there?

Wouldn't dream of renting before getting there some of the places for rent are the pits

Try these apartments very close to the beach , we have stayed in them several times , might be a bit expensive but ok short term www.corfuaccommodation.on.net

Having been in the same situation as you and been through it I would say definately NO, but then again if you don't you will always wander what if
