Government job boards & SEEK, all in one place

ഓസ്‌ട്രേലിയയിൽ ജോലി അന്വേഷിക്കുന്നവർക്ക് ആദ്യം ഉപയോഗിക്കാവുന്ന പ്രധാന job-search portals താഴെ കൊടുക്കുന്നു. നിങ്ങളുടെ profession-ന് registration, licence, skills assessment അല്ലെങ്കിൽ പ്രത്യേക eligibility requirement ഉണ്ടെങ്കിൽ job advertisement-ലും ബന്ധപ്പെട്ട ഔദ്യോഗിക regulator website-ലും അത് പ്രത്യേകം പരിശോധിക്കുക. Use SEEK and Workforce Australia for broad job searches, and use the state and territory government career portals for public-sector vacancies. A job advertisement does not automatically mean visa sponsorship is available, so check the advertisement carefully for work-right, citizenship/residency, registration, licensing and sponsorship requirements before applying.

Applying from Kerala or Overseas

ഇന്ത്യയിൽ നിന്നോ ഗൾഫിൽ നിന്നോ apply ചെയ്യുമ്പോൾ advertisement-ൽ overseas applicants, work rights, registration, licence, sponsorship എന്നിവയെ കുറിച്ച് എന്താണ് പറയുന്നതെന്ന് ശ്രദ്ധിക്കുക. Do not assume that every vacancy offers employer sponsorship. If sponsorship is important to you, look for explicit wording in the advertisement or contact the employer/recruiter directly before spending money on relocation or third-party services.

Know Your Workplace Rights

Employees working in Australia have minimum workplace entitlements. For most employees, minimum pay and conditions come from an award or registered agreement; award/agreement-free employees remain entitled to the National Employment Standards and the National Minimum Wage. Employees on probation still retain their applicable minimum entitlements. Visa holders and migrant workers have the same workplace rights and protections as other employees in Australia.

🚨

Watch for Job Scams

Be cautious if a supposed employer or recruiter asks you to pay money upfront to secure a job, contacts you unexpectedly through messaging apps, promises unusually high income for little work, or asks for sensitive identity or banking information before you have verified the organisation. A job advertisement can still be fake even when it appears on a trusted platform. Independently verify the employer or recruiter before sharing identity documents. Scamwatch specifically warns against job offers that require you to pay money to make money.

Are there “jobs in demand” in Australia?

Jobs and Skills Australia publishes the Occupation Shortage List (OSL). The latest published edition is the 2025 Occupation Shortage List, which reports occupations assessed as being in shortage nationally or in particular states and territories. It is a point-in-time labour-market assessment, not a skilled-visa eligibility list and not a guarantee that an individual will find a job, receive sponsorship, qualify for a visa, or meet professional registration requirements.

Requirements vary by profession. If you work in one of these fields, these guides explain the relevant assessment, registration and career pathways:
