Welcome Sekh Mahabub and thank you for your question,

Firstly, It’s great that you’re looking for opportunities in Australia’s agriculture sector! There are a few pathways you can explore to secure a sponsored internship or work opportunity:

Agricultural Visa Pathways:

The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (Subclass 482) is available if you find an employer willing to sponsor you, but agricultural internships may not always qualify.

The Temporary Work (International Relations) Visa (Subclass 403) – Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) Stream allows workers from select countries (including India in some cases) to work in agriculture.

The Working Holiday Visa (Subclass 417) or Work and Holiday Visa (Subclass 462) may be an option if you meet the eligibility criteria. These don’t offer sponsorship but can be a great way to gain local experience that might help you secure sponsorship longer term..

Where to Find Sponsored Opportunities:

482jobs.com ( https://482jobs.com ) – This is our job board and it specifically lists visa-sponsored jobs in Australia. Check if any agricultural roles are available.

Agri Labour Australia (https://www.agrilabour.com.au) – Specialises in agricultural recruitment and sometimes has sponsored roles.

Rural Enterprises (https://www.ruralenterprises.com.au) – Focuses on-farm jobs, including some with visa support.

Internship & Training Programs:

Approved Training Organizations (ATOs) – Some companies offer training visas through the Training Visa (Subclass 407) for skill development in agriculture.

AUSVEG (https://ausveg.com.au) – Represents vegetable growers and may have industry connections for internships.

National Farmers’ Federation (https://nff.org.au) – Sometimes shares job opportunities in agriculture.

Networking & Direct Applications:

Connect with farm owners and recruiters on LinkedIn and update your profile to highlight your skills in agricultural extension.

Let me know if you need further guidance! Wishing you the best in securing a sponsored opportunity.

All the best

G’day Tadele and welcome – Thanks for your post (and the pictures)! ☺️

As a lathe machine operator and welder, you may be eligible for visa sponsorship in Australia under skilled migration programs.

Is Your Occupation on a Skilled List?

Yes! Both roles appear on Australia’s skilled occupation lists:

1. Welder (First Class) – ANZSCO 322311

   • Listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL)
   • Eligible for:
     • Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 189) – No sponsorship required
     • Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190) – Requires state nomination
     • Skilled Work Regional Visa (Subclass 491) – Requires nomination by a regional area
     • Employer-Sponsored Visas (Subclass 482, 186, 494) – Requires job offer

2. Fitter (General) – ANZSCO 323211 (which may cover lathe machine operators)

   • Also on the MLTSSL, with the same visa options as above.

If your lathe machine work falls under Toolmaker (ANZSCO 323412) or another classification, let me know so I can check further.

How to Find Visa Sponsorship Jobs

To increase your chances of getting sponsored, check these job websites:

• https://482jobs.com – Our website listing only jobs with visa sponsorship.
• https://seek.com.au

Welcome to the forum, Delight. Thank you for your question.

If you’re looking for sponsored jobs in mining, FIFO roles, or dump truck driving in Australia, here are some resources to help you:

Australian Job Sites

1. 482Jobs.com – https://482jobs.com
   This is one of our websites, and all jobs listed here confirm visa sponsorship. It’s a great place to start your search.

2. Seek – https://seek.com.au
   One of Australia’s largest job platforms. Use keywords like “visa sponsorship,” “FIFO,” or “mining” to find relevant roles.

3. Indeed – https://indeed.com.au

Mining companies in Australia often sponsor skilled workers under the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa (subclass 482). Some regional employers may also offer sponsorship under the Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (SESR) visa (subclass 494). However, be mindful that competition will be very high for most driver jobs in Australia.

If you haven’t already, consider uploading your resume to 482Jobs.com here: https://482jobs.com/candidates/submit-resume/
Recruiters actively search for candidates, and this can increase your chances of securing a role.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any more guidance.

All the best

Hello Rizwan and welcome to Oz Visa Forum! ☺️

Pharmacy Technician (ANZSCO 311215) is on the Short-Term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), meaning limited migration options exist. Your best pathways include:

1. Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482) – Requires employer sponsorship.
2. Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) – If a state is currently nominating Pharmacy Technicians.
3. Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 491) – If a regional state is nominating this occupation.

Since STSOL occupations do not qualify for the Skilled Independent (subclass 189) visa, employer sponsorship or state nomination is essential.

Your Spouse’s Occupation has a few more optionss:

Your spouse, as a KAPS-certified pharmacist, falls under ANZSCO 251513 (Retail Pharmacist), ANZSCO 251512 (Industrial Pharmacist), or ANZSCO 251511 (Hospital Pharmacist).

All three pharmacist roles are on the Medium and Long-Term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), meaning they are eligible for:

• Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) – No sponsorship required.
• Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) – Requires state nomination.
• Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 491) – Requires state or family sponsorship.
• Employer-sponsored visas (subclass 482 or 186) – If a job offer is secured from an approved employer.

Since pharmacists are on the MLTSSL, your spouse has a much better chance of securing PR (Permanent Residency) and can include you as a dependent on the visa aplication.

Next Steps:

• Job Search: Look for visa-sponsored jobs at https://482jobs.com, https://seek.com.au, and https://indeed.com.au if you want to go down that path under your occupation.
• State Nomination: Check if any Australian state is nominating Pharmacy Technicians (311215) or Pharmacists (251511, 251512, 251513) for the 190 or 491 visa.
• Spouse’s PR Pathway: If your spouse meets the visa points criteria, applying under their occupation could be a faster route to PR.

As for your chances – this is really dependent on the number of ‘points’ your wife qualifies with if going the independent visa route like the subclass 189. I’ve included for you here a simple Australian points calculator to assist with calculating her score..

Your skills, compared to the skills of the other people applying for the same role, and your performance at the interview would also influence your chances of going the sponsored route.

I hope this helps for starters, though please feel free to let me know if you have further questions.

Cheers

Mark

G’day, Adama, and welcome to our community.

Firstly, finding employer-sponsored customer service jobs can be challenging, but opportunities are sometimes available, especially in tourism, hospitality, logistics, and tech support industries.

To begin your job search, check these platforms:

1. 482 Jobs – https://482jobs.com (This is our website, and all jobs here offer visa sponsorship)
2. Seek – https://seek.com.au
3. Indeed – https://indeed.com.au

Since you are multilingual and experienced, consider applying for roles such as:

• Multilingual Customer Support Representative
• Call Centre Agent (with language specialisation)
• Client Support in IT/Tech companies
• Hospitality and tourism-related customer service roles

Tips to Improve Your Chances:

• Optimise your resume for Australian employers. Follow this guide: https://482jobs.com/australia-resume-tips-craft-winning-resume/
• Upload your resume to 482 Jobs for Australian recruiters: https://482jobs.com/candidates/submit-resume/
• Improve your LinkedIn profile to attract recruiters: https://482jobs.com/15-expert-tips-to-get-noticed-by-australian-recruiters-on-linkedin/

As many Customer service roles can be managed remotely, you need to consider the reasons why an employer would pay to sponsor you. You’ll need to really sell the benefits of being available locally in Australia if you want to be successful.

If you have people management or any leadership experience in your CS role – this also should not be understated,

All the best

Hi Sukhwant,

Welcome to the community! 😊

Unfortunately, Housekeeping Room Attendant roles are not on Australia’s skilled occupation lists, meaning they are not eligible for a standard employer-sponsored visa like the 482 Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa.

Your best option would be to explore jobs with employers who can sponsor through a Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA). Some regional areas in Australia have DAMA agreements that allow sponsorship for lower-skilled hospitality roles, but availability depends on the specific region.

Here’s what I recommend:

1. Check DAMA regions – You can find more information on DAMA agreements here: https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au.
2. Look for jobs with potential sponsorship – Websites like:
   • https://482jobs.com – Focus on hospitality roles that mention sponsorship.
   • https://seek.com.au
   • https://indeed.com.au
3. Consider alternative visa pathways – If you have management experience or have the opportunities to progress in this direction with your current employer, you could aim for roles like Hotel or Motel Manager (ANZSCO 141311), which has a lot more visa options.

Let me know if you’d like guidance on other pathways!

Hey mate – welcome to the forum.

Great idea with your planned visit to Perth with your family! (Bring the sunscreen as it will be HOT)!

As a Plumbing and Heating Engineer, you’ll be glad to know that plumbers (ANZSCO 334111) are on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), which means potential skilled visa pathways are available.

Steps to Get Started:

1. Licensing & Skills Assessment – To work as a plumber in Australia, you’ll need to have your skills assessed by Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) (https://www.tradesrecognitionaustralia.gov.au/) and obtain a plumbing licence in WA. The licensing process is managed by the Plumbers Licensing Board of WA (https://www.dmirs.wa.gov.au/licensing/plumbers).

2. Visa Options – Since your occupation is on the MLTSSL, you have options like:

   • Employer-Sponsored Visa (Subclass 482 – Temporary Skill Shortage Visa) – If you find a sponsoring employer.
   • Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 189) – A points-based visa that doesn’t require sponsorship.
   • Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190) – Requires state nomination (WA nomination may be an option).
   • Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 491) – If you’re open to regional WA.

3. Job Search & Sponsorship – Sponsored jobs in plumbing can be competitive, but it’s possible. I’d recommend starting your search here:

   • 482 Jobs (Visa-Sponsored Jobs) – All jobs listed offer sponsorship.
   • Seek
   • Indeed

4. Networking & Research – Since you’re visiting Perth in December, use the trip to connect with local employers, trade associations, and recruiters. From the websites above, take a note of the recruiters who are frequently advertising for plumbers in WA and reach out to them directly.

   I did exactly this almost 20 years ago when I came to Perth from the UK on a bit of a rekkie and had coffee with several recruiters, which really helped serve as the foundation for my network for the job hunting that followed on my return back to the UK,

If you want to maximise your chances of finding a sponsored role, ensure your CV is formatted for Australian recruiters, its nott hat different to the UK format but there are some nuances you might want to consider. Here’s a guide that can help: Australia Resume Tips: Craft a Winning Resume in Australia.

Since you have a family, consider researching schools and suburbs in Perth. Northern and southern suburbs like Joondalup, Baldivis, and Ellenbrook are popular with families.

Let me know if you need further details, I’d be happy to help!

Regards,
Mark

G’day Michelle and welcome to our little home on the web! 😊

I completely understand how frustrating the process can be, especially with migration agents not responding. You’re not alone in this, and you may still have options.

Potential Visa Pathways:

1. Family Sponsorship – Since your sister is a citizen, she may be able to sponsor you under the Remaining Relative Visa (Subclass 115/835), but this is only available if you have no other close relatives outside Australia.
2. Parent Visas – If your son becomes a permanent resident, you might qualify for a Contributory Parent Visa (Subclass 143/173), but these come with VERY long processing times and high costs. 😖
3. Skilled Migration – Your occupation (Counsellor, ANZSCO 272111) is currently on the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), which means you could explore:
   • Employer-Sponsored Visas (Subclass 482/186) – If you can secure a job offer from an Australian employer willing to sponsor you. You can check out https://482jobs.com for visa-sponsored job listings.
   • State Nomination (Subclass 190) – NSW sometimes invites STSOL occupations, but age could be a limiting factor.
4. New Zealand Option – Yes, NZ has a higher skilled migration age limit (55), so that could be a good backup plan – Hopefully Australia will one day follow suit!

Migration Agents

Since you’ve had trouble getting responses, I can recommend an agent. Please note that they do charge an assessment fee for their time (approx $100 AUD for a 30-minute Video call). Payment and bookings can be made via the link here on our website at 482jobs if that is an option you want to consider.

Alternatively, I recommend searching for MARA-registered agents (Migration Agents Registration Authority) here: https://www.mara.gov.au. That way, you can ensure you’re working with a legitimate agent.

If you’re open to employer sponsorship, focusing on networking and applying directly to roles in Australia, this could be your fastest route.

Feel free to let me know if you need more details on any of these options! I hope this helps you.

Cheers

Hi Nyasha,

Thank you for sharing your occupation details. Let’s explore the relevant ANZSCO codes and visa options for your professions:

Metallurgical Technician

• ANZSCO Code: 312912

• Description: Tests materials as part of mineral and metal processing and refining, or conducts research into metals, ceramics, polymers, and other materials in support of Metallurgists and Materials Engineers. ​

• Occupations Lists: This occupation is listed on the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL).

Process Technician

The term “Process Technician” is broad and can encompass various roles across different industries. In the context of metallurgy and materials, it may align with the duties of a Metallurgical or Materials Technician (ANZSCO 312912). However, it’s challenging to assign an exact ANZSCO code without specific details about your responsibilities.

Visa Pathways

Given that Metallurgical or Materials Technician (ANZSCO 312912) is on the STSOL, you may be eligible for certain visa subclasses, including:​

• Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190): Requires state or territory government nomination.​

• Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 491): For skilled workers nominated by a state or territory government to live and work in regional Australia.

• Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (Subclass 482): Allows employers to address labour shortages by bringing in skilled workers where they cannot source an appropriately skilled Australian.​

Job Search Recommendations

For employer-sponsored job opportunities, consider the following platforms:

• https://482jobs.com: One of our websites where all listed jobs offer visa sponsorship.​

• https://seek.com.au: A comprehensive job board with various listings.​

• https://indeed.com.au: Another extensive platform for job seekers.​

Resume Enhancement

Consider formatting your resume to align with local standards to increase your visibility to Australian recruiters. Our guide can assist you:​

• Australia Resume Tips: Craft a Winning Resume in Australia: https://482jobs.com/australia-resume-tips-craft-winning-resume/​

Next Steps

If you can provide more specific details about your role as a Process Technician, I can offer more tailored advice regarding ANZSCO classification and visa options.

Additionally, if you’re considering employer-sponsored visas, it’s beneficial to connect with potential employers early in your job search.

I hope this information is helpful to you. Please don’t hesitate to ask me any more questions.

G’day Eman and welcome to Oz Visa Forum – Its great to have you here! 😊

Your IT Systems and Network Administrator occupation falls under ANZSCO 262113 – Systems Administrator or ANZSCO 263111 – Computer Network and Systems Engineer, depending on your specific duties.

Both roles are currently on Australia’s Short-Term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), which means you may be eligible for an employer-sponsored visa, such as the Subclass 482 Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa or the Subclass 186 Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) visa if an employer is willing to sponsor you.

To improve your chances of securing employer sponsorship, I recommend:

• Searching for sponsorship job opportunities on 482jobs.com (all jobs listed offer visa sponsorship).
• Exploring Seek and Indeed for additional job openings that may offer sponsorship.
• Optimise your LinkedIn profile and connect with Australian employers who hire IT professionals. This article might be of interest: 15 Expert Tips to Get Noticed by Australian Recruiters on LinkedIn

If you need skills assessment, ACS (Australian Computer Society) is the assessing authority for IT professionals. You may need to undergo an assessment if applying for a permanent visa later.

Would you like help with a resume tailored for Australian employers or more details on the visa process? Let me know how I can assist further.

[Mark]

Welcome Mphoentle and thanks for your question.

Your background, coupled with your experience and MBA studies, certainly makes you a good candidate for security management roles in Australia.

To find job opportunities with visa sponsorship, I recommend starting with 482jobs.com. This is one of our sites, and we recommend it because all listed jobs there offer sponsorship. You can also check Seek and Indeed for broader job listings.

Since security management roles may not always be on the skilled occupation lists for independent skilled migration, employer sponsorship (e.g., Subclass 482 Temporary Skill Shortage visa) could be your best option.

Networking through LinkedIn and industry groups like ASIAL (Australian Security Industry Association Limited) can also help.

If you would like guidance on specific visas or skills assessments, please let me know. I’d be happy to help!

Hello Charuhas, I’d say it depends on the platforms you have experience developing software in.,

Software development can be completed offshore, so the appetite to sponsor can be quite low.

1. The most common employer-sponsored visas for IT professionals are:

   • Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (Subclass 482) – Requires a job offer from an Australian employer who is willing to sponsor you.
   • Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) Visa (Subclass 186) – A permanent visa for skilled workers sponsored by an employer.
   • Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 494) – For regional employment opportunities.

2. Apply for jobs with sponsorship – You can find employers offering visa sponsorship through:

   • https://482jobs.com – All jobs listed here offer sponsorship.
   • https://seek.com.au – Use keywords like “482 visa” or “visa sponsorship.”
   • https://indeed.com.au – Another useful job search site.

3. Consider independent skilled migration – If you meet the eligibility criteria, you may qualify for a visa without employer sponsorship:

   • Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 189) – A points-based visa for occupations on the MLTSSL.
   • Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190) – Requires state nomination.
   • Skilled Work Regional Visa (Subclass 491) – For regional areas.

4. Get your skills assessed – If applying for a skilled visa, you’ll need a skills assessment from the Australian Computer Society (ACS): http://www.acs.org.au.

5. Improve your chances – Enhance your employability by gaining experience in in-demand IT fields such as cybersecurity, cloud computing, or AI. Certifications (e.g., AWS, Azure, PMP) can also help.

If you would you like help determining which visa best suits your profile? Let me know a little more about your occupation, skills and experience.
