Bazzi has more than 15 years’ experience in UAE and Australia, where he has worked, initially as an Electronics Maintenance Engineer… then as a Seismic Engineer, General Field Engineer, Account Manager and in Technical Sales… and is now working as a General Wireline Field Engineer. That’s an interesting mix of technical and client-facing role experience.
I first met Bazzi in 2017. What struck me was his willingness to seek advice and flexibility in how to pursue his career in Australia. Always professional in his approach, he mapped out a strategic pathway to where he is today.
Bazzi talks about:
Preconceptions of Australia Vs reality
Why he chose Australia over other destinations
Strategies, both success and unsuccessful, he used to find work
Being efficient with applications
Value of doing a work placement to overcome the lack of local experience
Employer perceptions Vs reality
Technical Sales/Client-facing roles – being the face of the company
Covid-enforced career redirection
Being headhunted by companies
FIFO employment
