So many people dream of moving to Australia — but most get stuck asking: “Can you find me an employer?” Here’s the truth: getting sponsored by an Australian employer from overseas is really tough. Competition is high, and most employers prefer workers who are already in the country.
But don’t worry — there’s a better, more realistic way: Australia’s Skilled Migration Program!
If you’re under 45, have work experience in an in-demand job (like electricians, nurses, teachers, or engineers), and can score at least 65 points on Australia’s immigration points test — this pathway is for you.
The best part? You don’t need an employer — just follow the right steps, prove your skills, and apply directly.
In this guide, I’ll break it all down for you: how to check your eligibility, get your skills assessed, calculate your points, submit your Expression of Interest (EOI), and choose the right visa option.
