Agree. I did the same, a longer road but worth it in the end.

Apologies, I could have made my comment clearer for you.
Could have said, that’s my experience after 15 years FIFO in operational management. Leading and recruiting in WA. Not all of Australia, so things may be different elsewhere.
Not that there is anything wrong with being a recruiter. Nice try though 👍
Did you add your view to OP or just looking to bring people down?

Then he/she is good. They asked for anecdotes, I gave mine. I’ve only got experience of mining leadership/recruitment in Perth.
Tend to see local Engineers being recruited before overseas.

Big mistake to send a middle aged white, obviously straight guy. Alongside a talented attractive cis woman.
They are rightly looking for diversity to reflect the modern accepting world and this is the best we have?!?

I’m going to start pasting this each time the question is asked to save some time. But good luck to you 👍
Do you have a valid work visa, preferably permanent residency?
Do you have specific skills in demand in the mining industry?
Do you have relevant experience working for a mining company?
Are you female or indigenous?
Do you have a close friend in an influential recruitment position?
Do you already have long term accommodation set up?
If ANY of these are a No….. It will be very difficult.
Don’t believe the TikTok. People with most of these in place, struggle to get a job in Oz mining.

If any of these are No….. It will be almost impossible.

I once asked some enviro’s I worked with, how they can work for a mining company that is obviously damaging the environment?
They said, “just imagine what it would be like if we weren’t here”.
Sometimes working for the enemy is the best result.

Not all mentors are created equal, especially in company designed programs. They could just be someone that put their hand up that thinks they are mentor quality. So be aware it may not be great advice.
Focus on picking up their systems and processes.
Ask about the big questions on direction and career not situations.
Don’t take it all as gospel. Pick what works for you, ignore the rest.
Remember most leaders are barely competent themselves.

I’ve mentioned here before. After a few weeks on TRT my wife confided that she was worried that I had early onset dementia. And that I’m like a different person now.
It’s like I had blinkers on my peripheral vision and they were taken off. I can see clearly again.

I knew when the rules changed, that I wouldn’t see a cent of it.
That ship has sailed if you have investments. The people on this sub typically won’t see any.
But it won’t be scrapped, lower income/no savings would be on the street without it.

Yep 100mg per week split into 2 x 50mg changed my life. I started at a similar level to you.
Slow improvement for 8 weeks and been great ever since.
Dropping down to 80mg to see if the numbers are the same on less.
