The first step in qualifying for an Australian work visa is to find out if your occupation is among the 400 careers which are listed as being in demand in Australia. Australia has no problem importing talent when their own talent pool cannot provide what industries and employers need to keep the economy healthy and growing.

Australia’s occupations lists, also referred to as the MLTSSL list and the STSOL list, are updated regularly based on feedback Australia’s immigration department receives from various industries and sectors reporting difficulty in finding suitably qualified Australians to fill positions.

The Australian visa systems offers visa applicants, who can show evidence that they are experienced and educated in a listed occupation, the opportunity to apply under one of Australia's skilled routes.

Should your occupation be on the Skilled Occupations List for either the  Short Term Strategic Skills List (STSSL) or the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) and you are interested in immigrating to Australia, speak to a immigration consultant about the specifics and to find out what conditions apply in terms of your application.
