You can go to any of their job centre to look for a job. After you got the job, the company will apply work permit for you.

that's one good way dy.. after you've been working for let's say few years in oz,
then apply for PR...then u can hunt for other jobs in oz...

some company require you to FIRST Get the job and APPLY on your own. They only endorse and host

live and learn lor....do extra work, we're after all kuli

erm... we need to have a company who help us on the visa right??? else we cant jus simply go in and look for job.... am i right?

Take tourist pass first. Once you got the job, your boss will settle for you on the permit

Wow.... any job in Aussie??

Want to know more ..... thanks anyway~

hmm. that's such a general statement.

try browsing www.seek.com.au, www.mycareer.com.au, www.careerone.com.au

I'm not sure about companies sponsoring you on work permits and everything though... maybe, if you're highly qualified senior professional in particular fields.

You do not need very high academic qualification to get the work permit. Someone who work in the Chinese restaurant as waiter also stay a chance to get one

If you are looking for a good pay job in an office and so on....have to wait and the chances is not that high. The best way is to get a tourist visa and then go there and hunt for a job but in the meantime get a job in the restaurant to cover all the costs there. Good luck anyway

This is what i'm trying to say

are you graduated from australia university?

Are you directing the question to me or the thread starter ?

thread starter to be exact. sorry to make you confused.

What Alextan99 said in short is "jump aeroplane"

in another words slim chance?

yeah, jump aeroplane, thats what I am doing now...
I mean dont do like that, you will regret like me.
if you want to be a legal person, look for a company that willing to hire you, and most importantly they willing to give you a working permitt also, BEFORE you go!! if you come as tourist visa it will stay for 6 month, and its not easy to find a job thats can offer you working permitt unless you have special skill like chinese doctor or what so ever special skill. or the easiest way, look for a school(cheap one) that offer english course, apply for student visa and that will atleast hold for a year.
if you dont want all the hustle thing just jump like me.

Spend some money, get a graduate diploma then apply for PR. Not easy, but it works.

thats a bloody long way. how if people want money desperately??people want to work overseas coz they want earn more money ma...not spend more money....
