Marketing yourself effectively in the language and style that employers understand is often the key to an international job seeker’s success in Australia. Many foreign job seekers may not know the best way to market themselves to a typical Australian employer.

Seeking a job abroad often seems like a daunting task influenced by various factors including skill requirements, academic background and professional qualifications. While an employer may extend a job offer and an Australia work permit to overseas workers, it is advisable to proactively pursue visa options that allow prospective employers to access and evaluate the worker’s profile.
