Work Experience in Australia
Australia is an incredible mix of vast red deserts and white-sand beaches, tropical rainforests and the Great Barrier Reef, sky-scraping modern cities and the great Outback - not to mention its assortment of exotic flora and fauna found nowhere else on earth. The Aussies offer foreign backpackers a myriad of paid work opportunities, and have come to count on temporary workers from abroad. Work and travel for a year in "Oz", and have the ultimate Australian adventure!

WE MAKE THINGS EASY FOR YOU
With our knowledge of the Australian job market, we make sure that you can easily contact potential employers, such as hotel chains and temporary employment agencies, so you can gain work experience in Australia more easily.

- A job agency.
- Computers.

You can, of course, see if your fellow backpackers have a tip for the job of your dreams as you gain work experience in Australia. Asking around at various local businesses is another way many backpackers end up landing a job.
You can expect to earn approximately AUS$ 10-15 an hour. About 29% is deducted from this in taxes.

Other work
With the Working Holiday Visa, the sky's the limit when it comes to your job choice. You can take on basically any kind of job, from a furniture packer to a hair dresser, chauffeur to market researcher, car washer to cleaning personnel. All you need is a little creativity and luck. Keep your ears pricked up for valuable hints from your fellow backpackers, and before you know it, you will be gaining work experience in Australia.
If your English is fluent and you can type efficiently, you can find work in an office. In any case, take written references with you as evidence of your work experience prior to Australia. References are necessary for any job you apply for. Aussies, just like the British, have a traditional view when it comes to office jobs. A formal work outfit is a must - especially during the job interview.
