Finding a job in Australia!

When looking for employment Mycareer , Careerone and Seek are the largest recruitment agencies in Australia, and all have good websites to help you find work in Australia.

Local newspapers always have positions vacant advertised, and the unemployment rate is currently low. In every Australia Post Office there are complimentary white and yellow pages, this is a good idea to pick these up as soon as you can after you have entered Australia on the relevant visa, this will help you find , work in Australia.

If you are entering Australia on a business visa (Australian visas) and need to buy a business, there are more franchise opportunities currently in Australia than anywhere else in the world. There are real estate agencies specifically targeting, Australian immigration, and people who want to find a business for there, work in Australia.

Take a look at www.century21.com.au or www.raywhite.com
These are two of the largest real estates in Australia and may help you find what you are looking for to enable you to, work in Australia

All this information is shown visually on the Australian Immigration DVD’s available to you, with over two hour’s real life footage of Australia. Since I completed my Australian Immigration I have been working to help people with their own Australian Immigration and gain work in Australia and then Australian Citizenship as I did, by obtaining an Australian visa using an Australian Immigration Lawyer.

I am passionate about the great lifestyle Australia has to offer, and found no visual reality information was available when we were wanting to complete our Australian Immigration, so I decided to produce four DVD’s which show you for yourself the lifestyle on offer here down under.

If you are planning to set up a business you will need to obtain an ABN (Australian Business Number) and everyone needs a tax file number to work in Australia. You can only obtain these once you have entered Australia on the relevant visa (Australian visas). The ABN can be applied for in person at the local office of fair trading which is located in most major towns, I used the office at Maroochydore in Queensland completed a three page form, showed my visa card and Australian drivers licence as proof of identity, paid around $100 and registered the business.

I would have been unable to get a business bank account or trade without registering the business in the state I live. I must admit I don’t know the rules for the other states, as all licences and registrations can operate differently. In fact the country operates differently from state to state, I’m not real sure on the politics but John Howard is the PM, is liberal and our Queensland State Premier is Peter Beatie and he is Labour, and is state is run independently under the main party rules.

When you have completed your Australian immigration your tax file number is obtained online and again can only be done once you are in Australia. It may help you to look at the Australian Taxation Office website www.ato.gov.au

Many trades need Australian licences to work and they are generally only valid for the state you are in.  The self employed need to complete a BAS (Business Activity Statement) return every quarter. The GST (Goods and Services Tax) is currently 10% and similar to the UK’s VAT. 

In our house we have two businesses Gary’s and mine Living Down Under, I am able to do the book keeping and BAS statements every quarter, then  at the financial year end 30th June we employ a tax specialist (accountant) to complete our year end.

After your Australian immigration, everyone needs to do a tax return at the end of the year, even the fully employed. A system which is very different to the UK, and there is a negative gearing tax benefit for anyone wanting to buy investment property…you get  a tax reduction for any debt the investment property has incurred.

Check the ATO (Australian Tax Office) website for the latest news, and the www.Australiagov.com.au website holds a lot of information.

Since our Australian immigration, we have found in Queensland that currently Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast have larger corporate organisations, sales positions. Yet the Sunshine Coast has a lot more small businesses, both have lots of retail and obviously tourism, work in Australia should be no problem.

Australia is like anywhere, In my view, if you are willing to work in Australia you WILL find work in Australia and do well, as employers respect immigrants for there commitment to the country and the fact they have make a huge change in there lifestyle. That’s not to say you wont get ribbed for your accent and being a POHM – you will.

The information is shown visually, the DVD’s available are Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney .  The DVD is over two hours long and has narrated footage and will show you lots about obtaining a job and work in Australia.

These DVD’s are vital information for anyone wanting to Immigrate to Australia, or is thinking of Australian Immigration or wanting to work in Australia.

Australian Visas can be obtained from many Australian immigration lawyer, however if you have an immigration related or Australian citizenship question you can’t find the answer to, try this www.askamigrationexpert.com for a free service, to resolve your, work in Australia or visa for Australia query.

Does anybody else notice the Koala plushie?

The lyrics by many requests.

Travelling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,

Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

Buying bread from a man in brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, do you speak-a my language?
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

Lying in a den in bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?
And he said,

Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

I am planning to go and tour Australia for 12 months next year on a tourist/visit visa. I want to travel around and working also. I am a qualified Electrician, would I find enough work? am i permitted to work under tourist/visit visa or what is the method? Also what is the average cost of living?
i am 30 now planning to go on a tourist visa and find a job, and start working and apply for the required visa? can this happen….

Of course you can work..

The question you should be asking is, if you can do it legally..

I'm sorry, that I can't help you with…

As far as the dollar… The Australian dollar to my knowledge is a tad bit lower than ours.

With that, I think you can gather that the majority of things are simular…but in all, most likely very different..

Just don't forget over there, you're driving on the wrong side of the road.

I have recently graduated from hairdressing school and want to move to australia to work as a stylist. I know that in Australia it is a 4 year apprentice, so I just dont see them hiring me over someone with that kind of experience. Is there any way around this?

You shouldn't have any problems getting a job in Aussie for a hairdresser, I mean hair is hair - there's no difference in what country you are in.

I work assisting small businesses in Australia. Because of the booming economy, the biggest problem they face is finding skilled workers.

From what I understand, the economy in the US is heading downhill, especially in construction.

An International recruitment and immigration company I work with is considering opening a US office. It would offer free flights and relocation assistance, free immigration service to qualified employees, and a guaranteed well-paid job.

Where would be the best location?

We are considering either Southern California or Florida. Are these good locations?

Thanks for your help. Any positive suggestions will be well much appreciated.

I work construction in NW Florida. Contact me privately I'll go based on money and benefits

I am interested in moving to Australia for a year and work as a dental hygienist, but I am unsure of which type of visa I would need for this move?
Can anyone help?

Skilled migrant may be best if you're under 45. Especially if you've got at least 1 year experience (in the last 2 years).

See link below for more details.

A Company or Corporate Secretary may or may not sit on the board of directors but holds a high level position in a company. However, this profession is sometimes misunderstood for clerical secretaries. Is it difficult finding work as a Corporate Secretary in Australia?

Hey there from Melbourne (Australia)!

There is a bit of work around for Company Secretaries, however nearly all roles require dual qualifications of not just Company Secretarial but also either law or accounting. Myself, I am qualified in law plus have post graduate qualifications in Corporate Governance, the latter of which allows membership as a "Chartered Secretary" via the local branch of the Institute of Chartered Secretaries, known here as "Chartered Secretaries Australia".

In short though, no it is not difficult finding work as a corporate/company secretary here in Australia, however nearly always the roles as advertised also require the person holding the office to perform either a legal or accounting role, and thus you would also need professional qualifications and ability to be admitted to practice in one of those professions too.

Good luck though.

Cheers

David
