Working in Australia

If you have come to Australia without having a job in hand, read on.

To increase your chances of landing yourself a good job I would highly recommend getting in touch with a reputed recruitment consultant (agency), in addition to finding jobs online. Apart from long term, permanent opportunities, thankfully Australia also has a lot of other categories of jobs including temporary, part-time, casual, and even for those who are holidaymakers but have permission to work.

Best Online Job Sites
There are plenty of online sites that you can go to, however the best and most comprehensive of these are:
1. Seek
2. My Career
3. CareerOne
4. Jobs

In addition, there are also sites for specialised industries or professions, such as jobs in government or engineering and so on - I will not go into those here.

Best Online Work-from-Home Sites
If you are a woman who wants to work from home or want flexi-options due to family reasons, there are a number of good sites for you:
1. Career Mums
2. Mums @ Work
3. Work at Home Mums
4. Virtual Angels

Recruitment Consultants
The top ones in my opinion would be:
1. Hays
2. Manpower

Happy Hunting !
