Working Holiday Visa
Does anyone have any experience with working holiday visas and whether it makes employers more reluctant to employ you as it's a temporary visa? Is it more for people who want to work in the hospitality industry?

Re: Working Holiday Visa
Its primary for people who want to holiday and to help to pay for holidaying.
But people have used it as a step to getting a more permanent visa.
you can uplift a 23month visa and work 12months of that. But if you want to pick up a more permanent visa then you would need to make sure that any position you are offered meets the requirements and that you also met the requirements to gain a visa.
