I spent this weekend contemplating the relative merits of migrating ASAP or waiting until after Christmas. It is very nearly October so even if I handed in my notice immediately I would still not be able to leave until November. I don’t know if the Australian job market works in a similar way to the UK but I imagine its going to be hard to find a job around the Christmas period.
The sensible choice seems to be to postpone my departure until after Christmas. This gives me a definite leaving date for work and makes my planning easier. The downside is it probably makes selling my car harder and extends the time I will be living with my parents (this causes problems with travel to / from work)
