    Hey Protest and welcome

    Securing employment in Australia can sometimes be challenging, especially if you’re looking to fulfil visa conditions or gain sponsorship. Here are a few tips to improve your chances:

    1. Apply to Regional Areas

    • Regional Australia often has a high demand for skilled diesel mechanics, particularly in mining, agriculture, and heavy machinery industries. Employers in these areas are sometimes more willing to sponsor skilled workers under visas like the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (subclass 482) or offer permanent pathways.

    2. Tailor Your Resume

    • Emphasize your skills, qualifications, and experience as they align with Australian standards. Highlight your Certificate III, skills assessment, and English test results.
    • Include specific keywords from Australian job descriptions, such as “heavy vehicle maintenance,” “mobile plant repair,” and “diesel engine diagnostics.” Our guide here may help.

    3. Leverage Job Boards and Recruitment Agencies

    • Use Australian job portals like 482jobs.com, Indeed, and JobActive.
    • Contact recruitment agencies specializing in trades or mechanical roles, such as Hays, Chandler Macleod, or WorkPac.

    It’s worth noting that Diesel mechanics with experience in diagnostics, hydraulics, and specialized machinery (e.g., CAT or Komatsu equipment) are in higher demand. Consider short courses to upskill in areas relevant to Australian employers. Linking you also with @Henry on this thread.
