🚀 We’re Upgrading the Mothership!
Our site is moving to a shiny new platform.
The engines are warming up, the crew is busy, and it may take a little while ⏳.

Hey Everyone! Admin here, It's a bit overdue but I will be migrating our forum site to a new platform for better security. I will take out all the ads as well as these pesky spammers. Please expect a bit of issues here and there, and will slowly move the features to the new one. Don't worry we are very much alive and will be alive as long as I'm here :)
Applying as a Business owner or an Employee?

Good day PinoyAu Community!
Hope you'll help me decide on this matter, I 'am quite hesitant if I will apply as a business co-owner in a family business or just to declare myself as an employee of it, will it somehow affect the authenticity of my papers or the process of my application? Can you guide me which way to go? Thank in advance for the response.

That’s an interesting question and really depends on your goals. Applying as a business owner often means taking on more responsibility but also enjoying greater flexibility and control over decisions, while applying as an employee provides more stability and less risk. Either way, visibility matters — being listed in a Lokale bedrijvengids can help business owners gain recognition and build credibility within their market.
