Jupiter Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hi. I have lived, studied and worked in Australia before. I have recently gotten my Bachelor's degree in Information Technology. I am trying to break into the industry. I have done odd jobs before but don't have work experience that is directly related to IT. That is why I'm looking for any junior type roles.

JetBlast Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Nobody will sponsor and un-skilled junior worker. You should build up experience in your home country before you consider going to Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unzippy Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 You need to ask yourself what have you got to offer an Aus employer that they can't find locally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you understand what an employer must do to sponsor someone? They must complete a whole lot of paperwork. It costs them money and staff time. They are not going to make that major effort to sponsor a junior employee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWMOY04 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 try LinkedIn. I doubt (though it's possible) you will find help for your specific [and rather complex] situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWMOY04 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 sorry, I should have been more specific make a linked in profile, and start actively targeting people in the same I did try as you, who work in the specific town/city you want to go to. then be bold and professional and ask them if their organisation is willing to sponsor you... if they like what they see, they'll do it. it's harder for someone one This forum to do so as our information is rather anonymized, but LinkedIn does exactly what you are trying to achieve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you have been told on other threads, you need the work experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
