Hey Guys/Gals,

I'm sure many of you have heard of Australia's "Best Job in the World", and I would appreciate any help that you can provide. My video application has been accepted and Tourism Queensland will be selecting their top 50 candidates for voting starting March 2. It would be awesome if you could visit the link below, watch my video, and rate it. Rating it, at this point doesn't officially gain me any head way with beling selected, but it could help the Tourism Queensland panel make a decision to select me as a top 50 finalist. I would much appreciate your help!

Thanks,

James

Keep it up everybody! I really want this job! If you haven't already ranked my video, then please do and pass the link to you friends to rank it too!​

 
Thanks for everybody's support. I'm slowly moving up in the ratings. I can't wait to see who gets shortlisted for the official voting starting March 2!
 
I just checked it again. It's up. If you're on a slower connection, then it may take a minute or so to load, as their website seems to be intensive with every page having some sort of animation. Also, I've noticed that some older browsers just don't work. I've had the best luck with IE 7, Firefox 3.0.6, and Opera 9.x :) I hope that helps and thanks for trying to rate my video!
 
Here is the latest news bulletin from islandreefjob.com

What a week! Over the past few days a huge team of trained and dedicated Tourism Queensland staff have been working literally around the clock to make sure every one of the 34,684 video applications we received for the Best Job in the World by the closing date has been processed. This phase has now been completed and we're moving into the next exciting stage - short listing.

On Thursday February 26 (Queensland time) a pool of applicants will be contacted via email to undertake online psychometric testing for potential short listing into the Top 50. We'll then publicise the Top 50 next Monday 2 March at 11.59pm UTC. So stay tuned!

Bummer, no email in my inbox. Congratulations to everybody who did get an email! Thanks you to everybody who helped make my video as visible as possible by viewing and rating it!
