Default Going on a one year working holiday visa and trying to stay...

Has anyone done this and how easy is it to find an employer who will sponser you. It looks like I'm inelgible due to a lack of secondry education, I did various diplomas and I have industry diploma in the financial sector but I@ve been told they are inaapropriate asnd not recognised.

I'm absolutely gutted, but still determined to get there, can anyone make any suggestions that may help

thanks in advance

Go on a working holiday for a year and in that year work for 3 months in agriculture-fruit picking,farming etc, then this will give you an extra 12 months in oz.Then work for someone who`s willing to sponsor you,this is what my brother did 4 years ago and he`s still there with no qualifications! Good luck

There are skill requirements for sponsored visas, although it may be easier in regional areas.
