Hi Kie4
You wont have any problem getting a diesel mechanic job in Perth,which is the best part of the country,dont listen to them eastern staters
There is a huge mining boom in WA at the moment and all the mining companies are grabing all the trades people they can and paying big dollars for good people.Most of the work is fly in fly out of Perth usually on a 3 week on 1 week off roster,but this varies.
Our local diesel mechanic shut up shop to go on a mine,there is another diesel mechanic in town,working as a mobile mechanic,he charges $80 per hour.
Goodluck
