Talk proposal for Landing Festival 2018 - Lisbon #CallForSpeakers

Next stop: Australia!

TL;DR: Australia is hiring! 5 things you should know before applying.

We got used to see Australia’s biggest cities in the top positions of all quality of life rankings, and this was one of the reasons why I always had the dream to relocate to Australia. Now that I'm living in Sydney I can definitely confirm that’s true. However, getting an opportunity here is not that easy and the dream can easily become a nightmare.

Come on board and join this trip to the other side of the world, from the moment you take a decision to leave until you finally land in Australia. During the journey, I’ll share 5 useful tips I wish I would have known before stepping up and that will hopefully help you during your relocation to Australia.
