I have now been here for 7 weeks and excited to start a new job, which i landed the 3rd week i was here. I was to go to Brisbane for the interview, which meant catching the train there for the first time which was great as well to see out of the Gold Coast, but there isnt really anything exciting in between. Had the interview seem it went well, got an email the following day saying I had got the job in admin and needed to go back and sign my contract and pay $790 for a uniform!! so i did that of course, was told training was to start in 4-6 weeks once they had done a criminal background check.
4th week came around no phone calls emails nothing, I decided to go to the office they were opening up in Bundall - Gold Coast, level 7 was where they were meant to be... the lift wouldnt let me get there, so decided go to level 9 see whats going on.... level 9 told me they had moved in and out and had no idea where they had gone!!!!!
March 12th an article had been posted on the internet

Was absolutely shattered... no job and loss of $790, how was i to know that this was to happen. everything seemed legit, contract was normal, normal interview. For that man to look at us all in the eyes knowing this was to happen how does he sleep at night!!
But can not dwell on it too much otherwise it will eat me up, so the job search continues as well as getting my money back!
On good news I am moving into a new flat 100m from the beach with a nice couple should be great!!
