  • Description

    AIDE Abroads Work & Travel Australia program allows you to work abroad in paid positions anywhere in the magnificent country of Australia! We provide you with the resources necessary to apply for the proper visa, along with the support and guidance to find the job you are suited for.

    Paid positions include: waiting tables, clerical work, telemarketing, sales and service work, production and transport work, seasonal work, and call center work. Working a typical 40-hour week in this type of position, you can expect to make around AUD 500-700 per week before taxes. After taxes, the net wages are closer to AUD 400 - 500 per week. Your salary will be arranged directly between you and your employer.

    Upon arrival, we will provide you with resources to help you prepare your resume and cover letter for the Australian job market. You will have a consultation with a recruitment consultant who will go through your resume, discuss job opportunities, give housing assistance, and review positions currently available. This saves you 2-3 weeks of time familiarizing yourself with the local scene and job market.

    All participants start with an orientation session in Sydney, and are eligible to seek employment throughout Australia.

    So pack your bags and get ready to have Ayers Rock, The Great Barrier Reef, abundant wildlife and the most beautiful beaches in the world at your finger tips!
