gaining work as a personal trainer in australia

Hi guys!
i'm from canberra, and am just about to start my cert 3 and 4 in fittnes, it is my hope to be a personal trainer full time when i finish.
I have been having a look around the jobs sites on the net and have not found many jobs advertised at all. Is this due to a lack of jobs in the indistry or do the gyms recrute staff some other way? i am very new to this so have no idea!
also would you say it is hard (after obtaining work) to make a full time living off training?
any opinions would be greatly appreciated!
 
Hi again!

From what I have seen, they are mostly casual jobs. Or part time. At some gyms, they get you to build up a client base. This is all I know.
 
I think Victoria is begging for PT's, if you don't mind moving over there.

They are advertising positions everywhere... or it might just be cause summer is around the corner. But either way get in now and hopefully keep your position ful time. :D
