Hi,
Well let me share my experience with you. I arrived in Australia on Feb 13 and got a contract job on 28 Feb, worked there till end of April, then got a permanent position in May. Overall, the IT job market is pretty good, however, it all depends on your skill set.
Approach I took was that I got an Australian phone number through Skype, got it diverted to my mobile in India and then floated my CV on seek.com.au. I got a lot of calls and even had 3 interviews arranged for myself before coming over here.
If you are on PR then you have the same opportunities as an Australian born citizen. The keyword again is your IT skillset and English.
Cheers,
