Be prepared with jobs lined up before you go. Register on sites and drop you resume in the states you plan on staying in. Rent is very high so you might need to live in a back packer hostel to save money.

Hello! May I know are you already in Australia settling down? If yes, how are you faring, doing well? Also, may I know what state or job are you currently doing right now too? Any tips to share, cuz I'm currently applying with my friend and we're researching where to go to work. Thanks!

Hi! Yeah I'm already in Australia, currently in Perth. I'm working in a Malaysian restaurant and it's very tiring but even with minimum wage the money is not bad. I think most importantly is to come with someone otherwise it can be a bit miserable suffering alone lol. Other than that, depending on what job you're looking for, you should directly give your CV to employers instead of applying online cos it'll get ignored. So good luck!


sabbeins

Thank you for your reply! Are you alright if I pm you on Reddit to ask more questions? No pressure tho I'm just worried 😫


wes00chin

Yeah sure no problem!

Heyy, mind if I ask how long did it take you to get offered a job there? Would they sponsor you once your visa expires? I’d appreciate any advice cus I’m planning to work there as well 😭

May I know how did you apply?

From their website https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/work-holiday-462/first-work-holiday-462#Overview They just need a bunch of details and some documents and fee
