Because I'm an EA, and the migration agent have contacts on the Gold Coast, I'm going to use them to help me get a job. I can only work 20 hours paid a week but will work more unpaid, though I will be paid commission on anything I sell. Got to get a sales licence first, and hope they will employ someone who is not a PR. I'm a good branch manager and excellent salesman, so would you turn me down?

You're going for a student visa aren't you? Why have you got an agent??? You just need an offer of a place on a course, apply for visa 4 months before course starts. Bobs your Uncle! (I looked into this whilst deciding on what visa to apply for.)

Hope you can get some good answers out of your agent! What do you want to know?

Of course they wouldn't turn you down Bushey!

Glad to hear the agent will be working for you for their money!

Have a good time at the show!

I'm going over on my partners student visa. Some employers can be a bit funny giving work to a none PR, as they consider certain people and backpackers as non-committal. I'm hoping they will see that renting a property, my experience, age and the fact we are there on a 2 year student visa and after that an 18 work experience visa, they will take us seriously. Oh and my professional manner and charm.

The things you have to do without having a trade or profession.

Good luck with the viewings!


We've had no phone calls or viewings. Considering lowering the price again and then contacting everyone who seemed keen to let them know.
