I've been looking around at some agencies sites, and I'm in contact with some friends over there who are working in London, and waiting for them to send me the agencies they've gone through.
I've been preparing my CV for the UK, as Australian CVs tend to be formatted quite different and are significantly longer. I have 5 years, but unfortunately only at the one government organisation (inland revenue). I would have liked to have a bit more commercial experience before coming over, but it didn't happen.
I've already paid for my visa and return ticket, and I have a bit of cash saved up, which I was going to use for travel or to keep me afloat until I get a contract! How long I can survive depends on how quickly I spend it! What's the average person spend per week living in London?
