How to get sponsorship jobs in Australia
Sponsorship may be the best way for many people already in Australia to stay because it provides a clear, well-structured path to get your Temporary Skill Shortage (subclass 482) sponsorship visa, which can lead to citizenship.
There are three categories of the TSS visa.
- The short-term stream.
- The medium-term stream.
- Labour Agreement stream visa.
The short-term stream and medium-term stream TSS visas help Australian businesses sponsor skilled overseas as per actual skill shortages recorded in the combined skilled occupation list.
Some Australian businesses also enter into Labour Agreements with the Australian government. In light of actual or potential skill shortages in the Australian workforce, they can sponsor overseas workers to work for them in Australia.
Sponsored employees of such registered employers are required to immigrate to Australia on a TSS visa under the Labour Agreement stream. TSS visa holders can study while working if they hold a medium-term or labour agreement stream visa.
Upon obtaining a Subsequent Entrant visa, you can also bring your family with you.
Although sponsorship will remain a challenge, depending on your experience, it is still possible and makes a lot of sense for Australian businesses.
When looking for a sponsorship, here are some things you can do:
- Look for employment opportunities in the market: You can add the keyword “Sponsor” to the role you are trying to get hired. You should be aware that not all companies in Australia can offer sponsorship. Before employers can begin hiring employees under sponsorship arrangements, they must also undergo an Australian government screening process.
- Create an astonishing cover letter: Human resources managers often have at least 100 applications piled high on their desks, and you have to make an impression in order to get their attention for an interview and writing a good Cover letter can distinguishes you from other candidates.
- Resume (CV): It is important that you find an international template for your resume, sometimes people add so much detail into their resumes but at the end they are not giving the employers valuable information about how their work experience can fit into vacant position.
It’s a good tip to include the keywords of the job description and relate them to your work experience so that when the employer reads them, they will find them relevant to the position they are seeking.
It is also important because most companies use software that scans resumes to see if they contain the keywords in the job description, and if you fail the filter, any human will read it.
