Hi-
I'm thinking of making Aaliyah, and settling in Tel Aviv for at least the next few chapters of my life. As a recently graduated university student I don't have access to a huge cashflow and I'm wondering what the cost of living in Tel Aviv will be. Is it possible to immigrate, find a flat and a job and start making a decent salary in three months time?

In three months time you'll certainly be able to find a flat - a shared option will be the most economical and the best way to make friends (expect to pay around 2500 Shekel), but you'll have a hard time finding a job in your field. That said, in Tel Aviv there's plenty of positions in the hospitality industry to tide you over until you find something more acceptable.
Regardeless though, salaries in Israel are notoriously low - so don't expect to make a fortune no matter your profession.
