Curtis,

Depends on what you want to do. At the moment, I'm
finding it hard to find any Australian companies (in
Melbourne) that want to hire an Australian Graduate
Chemical Engineer!

Five months of unemployment after six years of Uni
(double degree in Engineering and Science, honours in
both) has had me scratching my head on more than one
occasion!
