The Best Websites To Find Jobs In Australia

If you’re looking to move to Australia, one of the first things to consider is how you’re going to afford to live. While a daunting experience, finding a job Down Under doesn’t have to be hard, especially with so many companies listing their openings on job websites. From wait staff to marketing managers and temporary promotional work, you can find and apply for jobs easily in the comfort of your own home. To help you look, here are the best websites to use to help you find jobs in Australia.

Seek

With a professional layout and over 130,000 jobs in Australia and overseas, you might just find your next career move on Seek. The search bar is clear and precise with keyword, location, salary and industry options, although the latter may not be necessary i.e. you’re not going to find many waiting vacancies that aren’t in the hospitality classification. You can filter the results further by choosing the type of work you’re after, or change your previous choices, on the lefthand-side banner. It’s not just a potential employee that searches on Seek, for employers themselves can view your profile and see your skills, but only if they are relevant to your experience and you are registered online.

My Career

Not only can you search for a specific job on My Career, you can browse just by sector and even do a company search to see what roles, if any, are vacant in a business you are keen to work for. There is also a list of featured recruiters, from Adecco to Goodwin, with a number of job openings for each. If searching for jobs becomes a bit mind-numbing, you can sign up to My Career, list your skills and let them find the roles relevant to you. Signing up will also mean that your CV is saved for future applications and you will be alerted when appropriate jobs come up.

Career One

Boasting over 400,000 opportunities, you can search for full-time, part-time and casual work by industry, with image tabs leading you to specific roles and the number of openings in each. Industries are distinguished by headgear, or you can choose from the alphabetical dropdown menu (not all industries can be defined by hats). What makes this site so unique is its Tasks section. If you can’t find the full-time job you’re looking for, or you don’t even have a job, but want to use your skills to get some extra cash, there are nearly 500 tasks advertised on Career One with people looking for someone to clean their home, create a logo for a website, or repair a broken lock.

Australian JobSearch

Trusted for being a government website, Australian JobSearch is possibly the most varied and extensive you will find. Searching by industry is the easiest option, with categories listed alphabetically, followed by city, state or region. Once you’ve chosen your preferred location, the list of jobs appears, which you can refine by location, occupation, job type, and length. The industries can be extremely broad, and job listings include guitar teacher, plant mechanic, and concrete worker. In some openings, there is more than one position available, so chances of acceptance are higher. Anyone looking for regional work will also benefit from Australian JobSearch with Harvest Trail – a list of fruit and vegetable picking openings that you can apply to for your second year visa.

Jobs.com.au

Putting it simply, this site is all about jobs in Oz, which is pretty much what you should be looking for. You can search manually or browse by sector or location, and then filter the results accordingly. Newest posts are placed at the top with a “NEW” label beside them. If you are after a certain salary, you may be left disappointed as many are not specified, but the amount of jobs listed more than makes up for it, so get click-happy applying for as many as you wish.
