Can an american work in australia legally without having to pay a placement service? |
Travel Info i want to work in australia and im an american. i dont want to pay a placement service to get some work. can i try and find work with a tourist visa Travel Tips You should be able to get a work permit, this is a bit like the US green card. Plenty of US citizens working here temporarily or have recently moved here. A placement service may not be needed. Why not check the employment adverts of Australian newspapers online just before you are ready to leave the US? Major newspapers - The Sydney Morning Herald, The Australian (national) The Courier Mail (Brisbane) The Age (Melbourne) The Advertiser (Adelaide) The Mercury (Hobart) and I don't know the name of the main Perth newspaper. There are also employment adverts online. Work in IT, mining, housing and larger construction, bar and other work in tourist areas are just some of the work you may pick up. Others No what makes you think you USA folk can work anywhere in the world anyway?? No, u cannot work in Australia on a tourist visa. You will be deported. You do not need an agency to find work. Most agencies are free anyway. The Australian Embassy website has some info that may help you , and info on obtaining a work visa. See below. http://www.australianvisasdc.com/visitin... You can organise your own work before you apply for a working visa. If you try working while on a tourist visa you will be deported. Check out all the information you need about the different visas at the Department of Immigration and Citizenship web page at http://www.immi.gov.au Why not give it a go and see if you get deported I spose the answer would be no |
