Hi everyone, I had applied jobs directly from Australia but at the end most of the answer will saying that I do not have a visa so not able to employed me. I am just wondering, I need to get the visa 1st or I have to get a job 1st?

And some of the result told me that I have to go through with agency and paid $150 for consultation fees to assist me to get the visa, is that a scam or some info which I could take on?

Can anyone share some advice?

In order to work at Australia, you need to have a visa first. Any company in Australia needs to have a prove of visa for every skilled worker. ImmI Australia is very strict about this matter.

Once you get a visa, you then can apply for a job. Mind you, things at Australia is not going too well. It does not mean if you get a visa means you will get a job. There are people that are jobless for years after migrating there.They are facing very high unemployment rate in almost every state (at least 10-20%). I will not stop you from trying but things dont look too bright there.

As for these agency bullshit. Dont even pay them. If you have good written, reading and spoken english you can apply for a suitable visa directly from thier website. I did my visa application by myself without any agent. Do electronic application instead of paper, it is much faster.

Good luck for trying.

Thank for the information. Lucky that you told me not to pay for any of the agency, I almost try to do something stupid.
But in the cases I need to apply for the visa assessment, one of the assessment point is English test point. I do have a certificate for English but I think is not acceptable for them. Should I need to take the IELTS test before I apply for any of the visa?

If I am not mistaken the requirements are:

1. Your occupation needs to be on the SOL list for skilled migration.

2. You must take an IELTS test and pass based on thier requirements.

You need to meet the minumum points for the visa to be successful. Last time the total points must be 120 points for skilled migration. Now, I think things have changed alot. I can try to help but I am currently busy.

Also the waiting queue might be very long before you hear from them. It depends on your luck.

Good Luck.

I had download all the information that related to the visa 189(Skilled Independent), the passing score is 60, but unfortunately I am did not have the points. So, I guess I have to give up anyway. Keep on trying to apply will not having a good result. haha.
Anyway, thanks for the information.

Here is my 2 cents about Australia, it might not be as green as many people might say. Instead our neighbour Singapore is actually doing better than Australia. You might want to try there instead.

The Aussie government is now desperate for money as they might lose thier AAA credit as a country. The only thing that is keeping them alive is the gas sector. If they ever impose a gas tax. A big LOL for them. They even try to market skilled immigration on Facebook. Funny thing is the boat people they dont want, but people with money they want.

Of course the country welcomes skilled/wealthy people to reside in as they bring money into the country. Unlike our Malaysia, we welcome the banglas BUT ALLOW the skilled talents to flock to other country.  rclxub.gif

Lol. I know Malaysian government doesnt seem to realise the importance of rich and talented people.

Yes the good old "Australian Experience" requirement. That will kill the country and government in the first place.
