Got your visa? Here are some next steps to consider

Searching for information about how to find a job, which visa to apply for and who can help you find work once your visa is granted, can be overwhelming. Not to worry…WorkinAUS is here to help you find your ideal job.

Why search for jobs with WorkinAUS?

There are five ways we make your life that bit easier – and move you that bit closer to a job able to make your working holiday dream a reality.

1. Fast-track your chances of securing a job

No matter what stage in the job-finding process you’re at, once you’re granted your visa, we can help you secure a job before you even land in Australia, with new jobs advertised daily. Unlike other job ad websites, we are your direct line to Australian employers and recruiters who are willing to hire international talent.

Working holiday makers typically don’t look for jobs until they arrive in Australia, with intentions to travel before settling into work. We’d like to change that! You can begin to search for jobs that interest you, and ultimately increase your chances of securing a job, if you start sooner – on your terms. Simply create your job-seeker profile on WorkinAUS by dragging and dropping or uploading your resume and our platform will pull the exact information needed to populate your profile for you. Download the WorkInAUS app for iPhone or Android so you can search, find and start applying for jobs with the click of a button!

If you’re comfortable beginning your job search after you arrive in Australia, you can always create your profile and have it ready to go when you are. With notifications, WorkinAUS can do the hunting for you while you enjoy the sights!

2. Get access to more job opportunities

With your job-seeker profile, you can gain access to new job opportunities across Australia and get familiar with popular jobs for working holiday makers or jobs that just interest you. Because it’s Australian employers who actively want to hire international talent using WorkinAUS to find ideal candidates, they are more likely to hire applicants like you on a working holiday visa.

Employers can also use WorkInAUS as an opportunity to quickly communicate with potential candidates that spark their interest via the site or the WorkinAUS app. We recommend turning on your notifications via your settings and checking back regularly for job updates. This is a super easy and impactful way for employers to ask follow-up questions and saves time spent going back and forward by email.

3. Apply to more than one job

It’s pretty common for people to apply for multiple jobs at a time, but that can be difficult to keep track of. WorkinAUS simplifies the application process by keeping a record of the jobs you have applied for, so you no longer need to trawl through your emails for a previous job application.

For those already here, by applying to multiple jobs, you increase your chances of getting employed faster. For those who haven’t moved yet, you may have reached out to organisations outlining your interest, however, why not save time in doing this by creating your job-seeker profile and feature your skills and professional experience on a destination site that allows you to attract employers’ attention.

4. Stand out from the crowd Employers love to see candidates go that extra mile, which is why we designed a video-recording feature that gives you the option to record an introductory video to really sell your value. To make life easier, we’ve also added a teleprompter feature so you can script what you want to say and read directly from your script while recording. Make a great first impression and pin your video to your profile!

5. Simply the moving process with tips and tools WorkinAUS was designed to help you move a step closer toward your adventure, not just by finding a job. You can leverage our website and app to learn about visas, how you can prepare for your working holiday visa and easily access information on other useful tips and tricks while working abroad. Find answers to frequently asked questions or send us a direct message and our team will get back to you as soon as they can.
