Depending on your qualifications, you will need to be recognised by the National Office of Overseas Skills Recognition (NOOSR). Qualifications in a language other than English will need to be translated and certified. Depending on the job being applied for, you might need to submit an application for Australian work qualifications. Gaining Australian work experience is a must. This will verify that you have been properly exposed to the Australian business ethics, culture, management approaches, work practices, and the likes.

You can also gain experience by volunteering at a non-profit, which entails you to work without receiving salary in your chosen line of work. Training courses that include work experience are also available.

There are many different employment opportunities in a wide variety of industries throughout the country making it possible to easily live and become successful in Australia.

In addition, there are several helpful organisations that can help making your transition easier. Some government programs are designed to help prepare and qualify people for positions in demand.
