Are you seeking jobs in Australia from overseas and are not having much luck?  Have you considered planning a trip to Australia as part of your job search? If not, perhaps you should think about making a trip to Australia as part of your job search strategy.

Although our clients have had success gaining interviews over the telephone whilst they are still in their home countries, experience has shown that making a trip to Australia for the purpose of attending interviews and meeting with Australian employers and recruiters can greatly increase your success rate when applying for jobs in Australia.

Think about it this way – if you were looking to employ someone long term in your company, would you feel 100% comfortable hiring someone whom you have not yet met?  Most people would answer no to this question, unless you are working in a profession where your personality fit is not important when considering someone for a job – for example in a highly technical position where the employee’s proven experience in this field holds more weight than how they come across in an interview.

Using a trip to Australia as part of your job search can open up opportunities for interviews which may not have been there previously.  Australian employers who are not necessarily looking for an overseas applicant or sponsoring an overseas national may be more willing to consider if you if you happen to be in Australia and available for an interview.

The best way to plan your trip is to do your research in advance – compile a list of companies whom you have an interest in working for, and start contacting them before you leave.  Advise them that you will be in the country for a certain period of time and would love to have the opportunity to meet with them whilst you are there, even if they do not have any current vacancies that are suitable for you.  This way you can be considered more seriously for future opportunities with the organisation.

If you cannot set up a time to meet with the company when you make your initial contact with them, contact them again just before you arrive in Australia, or once you are there – this time by telephone, and let them know that you will be in their area on a certain date (give two options in case they cannot make one of them).  If you still cannot secure an interview date, the last resort is to visit the company in person when you are in Australia, with a copy of your CV,

and be sure to ask for the person in charge of recruiting for your profession.  By this time you should have made some great contacts and developed some relationships with the work you have done before arriving in Australia, so they should remember your name.

This is a very effective tactic as part of your job search, particularly if you are seeking job sponsorship, because it allows you to get in front of several employers, which is more powerful and influential than simply applying for jobs over the internet, because you have made a human to human connection.

Our clients have had success using this tactic and managed to gain phone interviews before they arrive in Australia, with second interviews lined up for when they are on their visit in Australia.  Other clients managed to book interviews whilst they were in Australia and had positive responses from Australian employers, even in the cases where they required sponsorship.

Nab That Job in Australia offers a service whereby they can take the hard work out of the research and contacting employers and recruiters by doing all of this for you.  Australian Emigration Job Search Strategist, Nadine Myers, has found that their third party recommendation for interview has had positive results. 

“When our clients have followed up from our inital contact, they were simply building upon the connection that we had already established with the contacts.  This means that a relationship been set up for them, making the contact by the client a lot easier and less ‘cold’”, said Ms Myers.

“We spend hours, if not days, doing research for our clients on suitable Australian employers whom we feel would be a great match for our clients’ skills and experience, and put together a detailed strategy for our clients to follow so they do not have to do too much thinking and figuring out for themselves – it is simple, paint-by-numbers system”, said Ms Myers.

Many clients and people that we speak to advise us that they are giving up on the Australian job sponsorship route for migrating to Australia, because recruitment agencies in Australia have advised them that:
  

“It’s just too hard to find a sponsor” 

“You need to have local experience”

“Australian companies aren’t sponsoring right now”

“You are better to wait until you arrive in Australia”

Why do recruitment agencies give this advice?  The reason is because, although they are specialists in their field and know the Australian market well, when they introduce job seekers to their clients (ie Australian companies), the recruiters receive a fee from that client.  Recruiters therefore want to take the quickest and easiest route for receiving their fee.  I know this sounds harsh, however, in their defense, recruiters receive hundreds of applications for jobs they advertise, and they need to somehow cut these applications down to a select few to introduce to their client.  Further, recruitment agencies need to have met you face to face before they can introduce you to their clients, as a matter of policy. 

Therefore, job seekers who require sponsorship, are not yet in Australia, and/or have not had work experience in Australia in the past; will for the most part, be screened out of the recruitment process by recruiters, as they opt to work with candidates whom will be less effort for them. 

This is not to say that recruiters have no feelings or compassion.  They are simply doing business the best they know how.  Having spent several years in the position of having to screen CVs and select the most suitable for the position, I understand the process that recruiters go through, and therefore I feel my opinion is justified.

Nadine Myers, Australian Emigration Job Search Strategist with Nab That Job in Australia! advises not to be deterred by the advice that Australian recruiters give you.  Ms Myers and her team work with foreign nationals every day, and have clients who have successfully found job sponsorship whilst applying from overseas, and who have not previously had local Australian experience. 

It must be stressed though, finding job sponsorship in Australia is no easy feat. 

“It takes a lot of hard work, dedication and a positive and resilient attitude, and even then, there is  chance you may fail”, says Ms Myers. 

“You have to know what you want, you have to go after it, and you have to know that no matter what adversities you are faced with now, you will reach your goal.”

Ms Myers advises not to believe that it will happen over night.  “Finding a job in Australia, including sponsorship, is a process that we help you through.  It starts with ensuring that your CV is competitive, that you have a strong job search strategy.  You also need to continually and systematically tap into the hidden job market – that means looking for those jobs that are not advertised.  They are out there, my friends!” says Ms Myers.

Many Australian companies now have sophisticated recruitment systems whereby they accept applications year-round from job seekers, whether they have vacancies or not.  The Australian companies then access this ‘pool’ of talent when positions become available in their company, and hence, they often do not need to advertise their vacancy.

Many Australian companies also offer their employees referral fees if they introduced someone they know to the company, which is very attractive and powerful, and can also mean that vacancies are filled from within the company before there is any need to advertise the position.

Networking and tapping into this hidden job market in Australia is therefore key for foreign nationals in particular, who are seeking employment in Australia.

“There are thousands of skilled job seekers all over the world who are seeking employment in Australia, and my mission is to ensure that these people do not give up on their dream of migrating to Australia”, says Ms Myers.
