Question

What job skills do you need to have to get a job easily in Australia?

Answer 1

If you are looking at immigrating into Australia, then the skills that will get you into the country are those that are most needed at the moment.

Although these skills may qualify you for an entry/working visa, they are no guarantee of actual employment if, for example you are big-headed, know-all or arrogant at an interview.

The skills that you need to get a job are not purely academic or technical.
