Visas

The Working Holiday visa applies to certain countries only and is recommended if you plan to stay for a long period, travel around Australia and cover your costs with casual jobs; this visa will not help you improve your CV or career prospects, considering that most proposed jobs are in hospitality, fruit picking, au pair jobs, labouring … This visa costs AU$235.
For further information on this visa’s conditions, please refer to the DIAC website.

Types of possible employment: since you can work full time, you may have a good chance to find a full time job in Autralia but because of the limitation to work 6 months maximum with the same employer still limits your job options. However everything will depend on your level of English. This visa can eventually help you find an employer who could sponsor you later on. Salaries vary between AU$12 and AU$40/hour.
