  chinky - I saw this one too and applied for it.
  
  There is a catch tough:
  1) hindi ka babayaran -
  2) Ikaw ang magbabayad 550 dollars to 600 ( I forgot na) at the end they will give recommendations etc.
  when I asked why the heck I am supposed to pay when they are not even paying for my services - the indian guy said.
  
  Nothing is free in Australia (In my mind FUCK YOU! gago ka ba!?)
  
  
  They will teach you how to be tax agent doing:
  BAS(Business activity statements)
  GST - It just like VAT in the PH
  etc.
  
  
  Pero I did not push through with it.
  
  I suggest Errol yourself nlng sa H&R block tax accountants.
  They got an income tax seminar (saturdays - starting in feb pa cost 610 dollars)
  Mas legit ito. plus after the 17 week seminar - you can get a chance to be a Junior tax agent.
  
  To me that makes a whole lot of sense.

  Chinky just an input lng from my friends. Ako nagaaplly ako barista o waiter. I got certificates for me to do that. But do not kid youself mare.IT IS NOT local experience.
  
  My two cents keep your focus. Accounting jobs ka talaga. Clerks. Accounts assintant or junoir mgmt accountant. In the long run it will be the best use of your time.
  
  Keep networking and attend seminars to get your self out there. Best of luck! It will come
