    I know Pickerings have a depot in Euston, thats about all that springs to mind. Not very familiar with Mildura - maybe try seek.com.au and fingers crossed something will be on the site.

    Good luck mate

    it is really frustrating having the licence but not the experience to go with it. pretty much everywhere i go asks for 2 years experience or more. getting extra tickets can help. maybe you'll find more employers are interested in you if you have things like white card, forklift ticket and dangerous goods licence. i'm going on a 2 day load restraint course next month. every little bit has to help, doesn't it? (i bloody hope so)

    yeah, i'm 46 and female, to boot ... lol. talk about the odds stacked against me :eek: but i'm gonna keep trying. where i am doesn't help much at all, either. mind you, there's no risk of getting any crappy metro multi-drop down here! and i'm with a job services provider. they will cover me for work trials, which is like school kids work experience. i can do up to 4 weeks with any one company, without pay, of course, but the job services mob cover workers comp insurance. it could be my only way of getting a foot in the door properly.
