Hi

My husband went on Tuesday (he is an accountant), he found very few
people that were interested in accountants, it seemed to be mainly
tradespeople that they were looking for. PWC were there, they took
his CV, a few recruitment agencies said that they had clients that
might be interested in accountants. The government reps just said
that they didn't know if they were looking for accountants and to
look on their websites.

Overall he felt that it was a bit of a waste of time for him....
although he did bring back lots of info etc and the free OzGuide! There
may be a chance that someone will contact him, but they probably tell
everyone that..... there is 160 new people entering every hour!

He also said that it was very busy and very cramped. Make sure if
you go you have already decided who you want to go and see before
you get in.
