About your adviser
10+ years on Australian mine sites
I worked in the Australian mining industry and know what employers expect, what site life is like and where candidates most often go wrong. I hold Australian and Croatian citizenship and have direct contact with the employer.
I started Euro Oz to help people from Croatia and the region reach the kind of job I had myself – honestly, clearly and without unnecessary middlemen.
