Working with a WHV
Unemployment levels in Australia are relatively low when compared to other developed countries such as France, the UK and the USA. Two reasons for this are the buoyancy of the australian economy and its controlled immigration policy. Because of this the types of work available can be limited by your visa type.
For people on a WHV (Working Holiday Visa) work options include:
| Bartending (requires an RSA*) |
| Waitressing |
| Babysitting/au pair |
| Language lessons |
| Fruit picking/farm work |
*Responsible Service of Alcohol – generally courses can be completed for $60 to $80, and take one full day.
