Welcome to our community and what a great question, Edith!
To apply for a visa-sponsored job in Australia, most people follow this common pathway using the Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482), also known as the TSS visa:
1. Find a Sponsor – First, you need to find an Australian employer who is willing to sponsor you. We recommend starting with https://482jobs.com – this is one of our websites, and all jobs listed there are confirmed as offering visa sponsorship. You can also search on:
Seek: https://seek.com.au
Indeed: https://indeed.com.au
2. Get a Job Offer – Once you secure a job offer, your employer must apply to become an approved business sponsor (if not already) and nominate you for the position.
3. Lodge Your Visa Application – After the nomination is approved, you can apply for the 482 visa through the Department of Home Affairs.
4. Processing Time – Visa processing times vary, but for most applicants, the 482 visa takes between 1 to 3 months. Some applications can be faster if everything is in order.
For a detailed step-by-step guide on how to apply for a 482 visa, we’ve created this helpful resource: How to Find a Job in Australia with 482 Visa Sponsorship?
I hope this helps you get started! If you need help with anything else, please let me know.
All the best
