A report recently revealed newly-arrived skilled migrants are not finding professional jobs in Australia.
The report, by Bob Birrell states many occupations like accounting and engineering on the Skilled Occupations Lists are in over supply and therefore most recently arrived skilled migrants to Australia have not found professional jobs.
The study states the Skilled Occupations List includes “numerous professions that the government’s own Department of Employment has judged to be oversupplied, including accounting and engineering.
“As a consequence, most recently arrived skilled migrants cannot find professional jobs.”
SBS Hindi received several emails and specific questions regarding finding work in Australia.
One migrant said he had been unsuccessful in finding work in spite applying for 100 jobs while another migrant was struggling to find work after being made redundant.
We put these career-related queries to migrant career coach Naishadh Gadani.
This video answers three questions:
